Review of On The Road (2013) by Jared F — 28 Aug 2013
"On the Road" 10 Scale Rating: 4.0 (Bad) ...
The Good: If it weren't for Garrett Hedlund, this film would have been a disaster. His performance at least keeps you interested.
The Bad: Some books just don't translate to film very well ... Kerouac's "On the Road" is one of them. The film seemed to gloss over the more important parts of the book, yet focus on the slower (and more boring) parts. It is especially rushed during the last thirty minutes. If you've ever read the book, then you will cringe once you see that only 30 minutes remain and there is no way they can fit it all in.
