Into the Wild

Who else absolutely loved this movie? Chris McCandles man, that guy knew what was up, burns his money and treks across the country to live in alaska in the wilderness alone, that would be the greatest. Someday i would love to live in the wilderness, bnot neccessarily AK, but someday that would be the life. where money means nothing!!!!

 

I have that movie for 5 months and I'm yet to watch it, even though it seems really really interesting. I'll watch it soon and then I'll share my opinion with you.

About living in the wilderness, seems great, but not in Alaska. Only somewhere in the tropics! Can't stand low temperatures.
The hardest part about living in the wilderness would be the lack of a private bathroom

 

check it out man, its amazing!
ive watched it soo many times and it never gets old for me.
the fact that its a true story just makes it all the better

 

This is one of my favorite movies!~

 

the movie is fantastic, one of my favorites.

 

It was a great movie but I'm not reckless enough to follow this example... I felt sorry for the sister and the parents. Leaving your family like that really breaks their heart

 

I loved it too. Very absorbing story. But I agree about notifying his family. Speaking as a mother, it upset me that he seemed like such a nice person, but nonetheless would purposely cause so much pain to his family.

But that doesn't really have anything to do with the quality of the movie. It was excellent. Beautifully done.

 

Great movie, I hated that he died though I hate sad endings so much.

 

yea that was a bummer for sure, especially since hunters found him only two short weeks after he passed away

 

coolass movie. i felt like i could really relate to the protagonist.

 

I could'nt handle when he left that old man.

 

I adore this movie, for sure its a shame that he didnt realise there was a river crossing 1/4 mile down river or a doc hut close by, if he had taken a map maybe things would have worked out but i think thats what makes this movie more real. that he gave up his life to get what was really real, and he got it! He learnt some pretty amazing things that thanks to this movie have been passed on to others, they way this movie was made, the whole vibe just gets me! And i can understand not wanting to let his parents in on what he was doing. they hurt him more than they realised, he let go of all his ties to people, society, family. he needed to do it alone, to find what he was searching for, to find the meaning in his life. i dont honestly think he knew he was going to die, he must have thought he was going to have a chance to see them again in the vague unknown future. why else would he have signed off his real name when he died? so people who found him could identify him and let his family know?

 

greatttt movie, but even better in novel format.

 

Unbelievably good movie. I have the exact same wanderlust. Hopefully I don't have the same ending he did.

 

I liked it, but not something I would watch more than once. To OP, money means nothing now, unless you want it to.

 

I thought the guy was incredibly selfish and also very dismissive of his family. The fact that he died instead of figure some things out was pretty tragic. This is NOT a fav movie of mine at all. It was interesting though. If he'd been just a little better at thinking things through or being prepared he could have lived and grown from all that, but nope.

 

To be fair he didnt die in attempt to esacape his problems, if thats what your trying tosay. He died because he mis-indentified a plant and ate a poisnonous one. he was about to go back to his family.

 

I have got to quit reading about movie or TV things on here. I'm pretty annoyed knowing that this guy is going to die in the end. I was looking forward to seeing this movie and now its kind ruined..

 

i didn't read the book or know all of the true story behind this person but i saw the film and thought it was absolutely beautiful.. i identify so much with him.. such a touching experience

 

This movie is impressively directed, Penn's camera loves the landscape and captures its immensity.
