The Long Walk
This movie is probably one of the greatest I have seen ever. It’s up there with get out, midsomar, everything everywhere all at once, and other movies like this. The best way I can describe it to people who haven’t seen it is that it’s a sad movie in the way the ending of squid games is. It’s poetic and so meaningful but so fucking sad.
Now for the spoiler part of my rant, so don’t read if you haven’t seen the movie

every one of their deaths hurt so badly, none of them you could get used too or feel less bad for. The movie was so real, like you where there, and you couldn’t even feel happy about the death of people you dislike in the slightest, thats how sad the movie is. I went into it not thinking much of it, idk how they where gonna stretch people walking into something an hour long, but I was sooooo wrong. Its like, how to I even describe it… its like the anxiety you feel when you’re going to school or when you know you’ve done something wrong and is going to get in bug trouble for it or like, uhmmmm, when someone you really care about dies, thats the feeling I got when watching it. It was so hard to look at some of the people too, the way that one guy broke his ankle and you could just hear the squelching of his broken foot and stuff when he’s walking on, it just so deeply disturbed me, and how far he made it walking on that broken foot was so impressive to but so sad, its like he tortured himself delaying the inevitable, and when he died it hurt so bad. Each and every death was poetic in their own way. Every. Single. One. And the last scene, it just… wow. I don’t wanna spoil too much so imma leave it here, but this movie was so so so so so good, and considering the way the world is now, it just makes you want to fight back even more. I highly reccomend watching if you haven’t. I don’t regret it one bit.
