Tracks Movie Review
I didn't finish watching The Maze Runner but I did watch Tracks today, which I've wanted to see even before I read the book, and finally I got to see it. It was really good and I appreciated how dirty and gross they made Mia Wasikowska (which I found out is pronounce vash-i-kovska) look for the role. I definitely think I enjoyed it even more because I'd read that book, and the movie was basically a summary of all the most important parts of the book. The book was kind of drawn out, so in some ways the movie was even better. Mia Wasikowska also looks a lot like the young Robyn Davidson. And Adam Driver looks a lot like the young Rick Smolan.Spoiler Alert!
When she has to shoot her dog... it was so sad in the book, and it was just as sad in the movie. I almost cried. It was like when Will Smith had to kill his dog in I Am Legend. That was just plain tragic. Honestly, sometimes I think dog deaths are more heart-wrenching than people deaths in movies.
