Reservation Road is the story of a man who lost his son from a tragic hit and run. The plot of course is a little more cleaver than that, but I would rather not give that much away or go into that much detail. Reservation Road is an extremely sad movie about a mans struggle to cope after the loss of his son, and another man's struggle to cope after a horrible accident. I think what makes this movie worth watching is the extraordinary performances by Joaquin Phoenix, Mark Ruffalo and Jennifer Connelly.
Although I am not a huge fan of Drama movies, this one was defiantly well done and worth watching. However be warned that you will probably need a box of tissues.
