The one with the mini movie review - Revolutionary road

Revolutionary road is a well shot flick, set back in the 50's reuniting the one that got her tits out on the Titanic and the bloke that fell gave up at the end of the same flick. April and Frank are our hapless couple raising kidsand always trying to do that little bit better and possibly be alot more than what they actually are.

The movie follows their lead and the people around them. It poses many questions around relationships and in turn proves a little food for thought at times. An absolutely fantastic performance by Kate and Leo sets this movie off into one of the better movies of the year so far.

But! and theres always a but. Revolutionary road is not a happy tale and its one of the more depressing flicks your gonna see in some time. You wont come bounding out of the cinema
after this one. But still in all, its a littlbe bit outside the box and enjoyable none the less. I enjoyed it and so did "herself" but we didnt exactly go off and make cakes after it!

It wont hurt to have a nose at this one, provided your not feeling a little depressed or down!

8/10
