Continuity mistake: At the house of the cannibals, when they spot them approaching the house through the window, the woman is wearing dark coloured pants and a whiteish coat. Shortly after, when she enters the house, she is wearing a red skirt, dark coat and a completely different hat. (00:37:15 - 00:37:44)

The Road is a grim, gritty, desaturated and grayscale dystopian Science Fiction drama that draws from a number of post-Apocalyptic tropes to tell the tale of a father and son desperately trying to survive illness, savage attacks by fellow survivors, the terrible weather and lack of resources. Viggo Mortenson, Charlize Theron, Kodi Smit-McPhee and Robert Duvall all try to hold together this bleak story, and flashbacks to happier times contrast and haunt rather than provide respite for the audience or the protagonists as the main characters trudge along. As pointed out on the mistakes page, there are some problems here, not the least of which is that you've seen just about everything here somewhere else. Best advice: Steer clear of this road and program your GPS for somewhere more hopeful.
