Title: An adventure which invites you to re-examine who you are
Review: My husband has read several books by Jon Krakauer, including the one this was based on, and I have great admiration for Sean Penn, so this was an enjoyable movie for us. My husband felt the screenplay was very true to the book. For anyone who has ever become disillusioned with society at any time in their life, for whatever reason, and considers heading out to find real meaning in the wilderness, this movie rings true. But it also shows that even with luck and decent skills, at some point, nature can teach harsh lessons. The scenery is gorgeous, and the actors' performances excellent. It doesn't answer any questions; rather, it presents the story and leaves the interpretations for you to think through. A keeper.
