It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

At first, I didn't like the character's behaviour and motives, I find it selfish to storm into people's lives, change it upside down, get them attached to you, and then leave without saying a word. But he then realised that happiness is only real when it's shared. I loved the acting, music and the great camera work. Recommendable if you are into fight club's "things you own end up owning you" theme.

Chris's life (in his own words) makes one realize that, "Happiness is only real when shared". The movie also has some pretty good dialogues. The acting and the cinematography were also great. But what that kid (Chris McCandless) did was a little bit stupid. He threw away his life unnecessarily. Instead of facing his problems, he ran away and he didn't even write a single letter to his sister who loved him. In the end, it was too late when he had learnt his lesson and he had to pay a high price for his actions. Nevertheless, a great story! Watch it when you have nothing else to do...........

Into the Wild is a tragic movie based on the tragic real life story of Christopher Mccandless. Chris was different and surely his foolhardy ways were directly responsible for his death, and yet you somehow feel for the guy. A part of you wishes he made out alive from the Alaskan tundra, from that yellow bus. The book on which this film is based, Jon Krakeur, is also a must read in my opinion. The lead Emile Hirsh is more than adequate and the director Sean Penn must be commended for not just deftly directing the film but realizing the need to tell this young lad's story. This is a great nature vs man feature film all the more hard hitting because it is true.

Everyone must watch this movie. This movie change my life.
