I have been really curious about this film for months now and the verdict is in..
this movie is fantastic. The acting was good, but the story is phenomenal. I went with my husband to see this last night and even he liked it. Though the story is dark, sort of depressing, and a whiff twisted. It is definitely a "Must See". The movie is about Frank and April Wheeler, who appear to be a typical suburban couple, complete with 2.5 kids, great house, she stays at home while he works in the city to support his stereotypical 1950's family. What makes the story so friggin' interesting is how Richard Yates, the author of the book Revolutionary Road, captured the gritty truth about marriage, kids, and living in suburbia. The fight scenes between this husband and wife are so real and the subject matter is so personal, it truly is art imitating life. I don't think that single people would like this movie, or people who are in denial about their "perfect" marriage would like it either, but if you are in a stable honest relationship, where your fights can get personal, not physical, you'll see this movie with different eyes. Definitely a "Must See" and you should see it with your spouse and talk about it afterwards, because you will definitely be able to recognize who the Wheelers are in your life, they really do exist and the parallel will shock you.
