Directed by Sam Mendes and based on the graphic novel by Max Allan Collins and Richard Piers Rayner, the Depression-era crime epic ROAD TO PERDITION stars Tom Hanks as Michael Sullivan, a quiet hit man who is duty bound to Mafia boss John Rooney (Paul Newman). The mobster's close bond with Sullivan, however, leads Rooney's jealous blood son, Connor (Daniel Craig), to orchestrate a tragic series of events that results in Sullivan on the run with his 12-year-old son, Michael Jr. (Tyler Hoechlin). Soon an unscrupulous crime photographer/assassin named Maguire (Jude Law) is sent after Sullivan and his son, and Sullivan must decide on a course of action as young Michael comes to terms with his father's violent way of life. ... Meticulously directed by Mendes and brilliantly photographed by Conrad Hall, each scene of ROAD TO PERDITION has the composition of an expertly rendered painting. Making effective use of rain, snow, and shadows, the filmmakers create a cinematic world that's as dark, cold, and unforgiving as many of its inhabitants. But the film also allows for glimpses of emotional warmth, particularly in Sullivan's relationships with his son and Rooney, his surrogate father. In these roles, the respective actors create complex characters that resonate even in their restraint; Hanks is outstanding as a man of action with little time for words, while newcomer Hoechlin creates an unsentimental portrait of a confused boy, and Newman once again proves why he's a screen legend. And, in a strikingly unflattering role, Law makes the most out of his screen time as a creepy, parasitic hit man. Even in its harshest moments, however, Mendes never fails to remind the audience that ROAD TO PERDITION is a film about fathers and sons; and this is what elevates it from an atmospheric gangster movie to a truly astonishing work of art.

Tom Hanks, you ain't no assassin baby
Come off it, you are good at playing numbskulls. You are completely unconvincing as a cold blooded killer. I find the thought of being hunted down by you about as scary as getting into a custard pie fight with the Krankies.
Anyway, this story is really disappointing. Enormously predictable, run of the mill gangster revenge twaddle.
Was American Beauty a fluke? I certainly hope not.
Road To Perdition Sam Mendes follows American Beauty with this handsome adaptation of a renowned graphic novel. Tom Hanks stars as the wronged enforcer of mob boss Paul Newman
Tom Hanks as a stern father and grim mob enforcer? It's a long long way from Joe Versus the Volcano, heck, this guy even makes Hanks' Captain John Miller from Saving Private Ryan
Mike is the chief enforcer and surrogate son of 1930s Irish-American mob boss John Rooney (Newman). When Rooney's unstable, jealous son Connor (Daniel Craig) kills one of his father's bootlegging associates (Ciar??n Hinds), the act is witnessed by Mike's son Michael Jr (Tyler Hoechlin), who was intrigued to find out what his dad's job...

Tom Hanks, Paul Newman, Jude Law, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Stanley Tucci
Well deserved nominations for Best Supporting actor by Newman. Surprised Hanks didn't get nominated that year for this movie. Movie is top notch as you would expect! 10/10 in my book
This movie stands on its own as a drama. Add to that a realistic gritty mob story with Tom Hanks. Great acting, directing, script, score, ect. This movie should be the subject of film school classes. Its that good.
