The Road (2009 film)/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Fridge Logic: The family in the end somehow survived by scavenging what the father and boy missed despite being four people and a dog? How does that work?
    • Just because it's called The Road doesn't mean there is only one road.
    • The Man and the Boy could not take everything in the shelter when they abandoned it. It could be that the reason the family took on the boy in the end was in thanks for leaving all that food behind.
    • Also the dog could be used to find hidden stashes of food that humans would miss.
  • Selfish Good, Selfish Evil: Both the father and mother, but for different reasons. The boy is the exact opposite.
