About this movie

THE ROVER, David Michod's highly anticipated follow-up to ANIMAL KINGDOM, is set in a world 10 years following the collapse of society. The rule of the law has disintegrated and life is cheap. The film follows hardened loner Eric (Pearce) as he travels the desolate towns and roads of the outback. When a gang of thieves steals his car they leave behind a wounded Rey (Pattinson) in their wake. Forcing Rey to help track the gang, Eric will go to any lengths to take back the one thing that still matters to him. Michod also wrote the film based on a story he conceived with Joel Edgerton.

Ratings and reviews

First seen it when it came out, the danger for some people is what they don't know and that is, in love there's no distinction between human and animal,,, hurt either and they won't stop and it won't be mercy at the door.

Slow film, great characters, neat ending sums it up.

Great acting from robert pattinson & guy pearce
