Sal Paradise is a young writer whose life is shaken and ultimately redefined by the arrival of Dean Moriarty, a free-spirited, fearless, fast talking Westerner and his girl, Marylou. Traveling cross-country, Sal and Dean venture out on a personal quest for freedom from the conformity and conservatism engulfing them in search of the unknown, themselves, and the pursuit of “it” -- the pure essence of experience.

Make you want to take your bag and experience the world!

One of the best book-to-movie adaptations ever...and beautiful cinematography to match.

Gabriella Farinelli

While it can't match the novel, On the Road is well acted and the cinematography is lovely.

i honestly don’t know why i love this movie so much, but i do.

Kareem Salah Ed-Deen

Hot sexual, erotic. That's it. I loved how Kristen looked, but it was more of a porno than a movie.

Sydney Hackworth

A biopic of Jack Kerouac that makes no sense and fails to get you to care about any of the characters.

Paint by numbers adaptation that somehow misses the entire point of the book

Love it! An amazing memory piece of the Beat generation and a beautiful coming-of-age of a bold young writer. A must-watch every few years

Julio Ramirez Jr.

The most random experience I’ve ever went through

Meh. I watched for a friend but I dont like it, pretty average.
