A 2002 film, directed by Sam Mendes, based on a comic of the same name (itself inspired by the manga ''[[Lone Wolf and Cub]]''). [[The Irish Mob|Mobster]] Michael Sullivan ([[Tom Hanks]]), and his son who followed him to work, witness the mob boss ([[Paul Newman]])'s son Connor (Daniel Craig) shoot a fellow employee (Ciaran Hinds) for [[Stealing From the Till|embezzling]] [[The Syndicate]].
Line 9 ⟶ 10:
The film deals largely with father-and-son relationships -- both the protagonists and the villain of the movie have deep issues with paternal [[Parental Favouritism|favoritism]] and [["Well Done, Son" Guy|respect]]. Whereas Connor forces his father to try to protect him at the cost of a man he clearly [[True Companions|loves as a son]], Michael becomes determined that his only surviving child [[Evil Parents Want Good Kids|will not become like him]].
Not to be confused with any other ''[[Road To]]'' movies.
