Notes et avis

There are some omissions from the book, 'The Long Walk' but this is necessary in order to accomodate the short duration of a film. The film makers have picked certain stories and told them well. Its an extraordinary tale of endurance and the human spirit under exceptional hardships. Recommended

Honestly an amazing movie the characters are unique and they have character

Really enjoyable
