This film is breathtaking. The cast are high quality actors and perform with sincerity. The film deals with great sensitivity both the death of a child and the belief of pilgrimage travellers. The photography is amazing too. A GREAT film

5.0 out of 5 starsWarning You will want to go on A Long Walk After!

Having walked the Camino, I wasn't sure if this would ruin my experience. On The Way, I met many people who were walking it because of this film.

I really enjoyed it and cried quite a bit. Although the cast were well known actors it did not take away from the story line. Martin Sheen walks the Camino after going to collect his son who died, the first day in.

It was good to see that they showed the places visited in order, and gave good story line and enough back story to each character to keep you captivated.

I now want to walk it again. The cinematography gave an honest view to the beautiful scenery on the Camino De Santiago.

One of my favourite films. Sensitive, dramatic, sad, funny, beautifully rich characters all with their own baggage and acted out by a fine selection of actors from right across the board. Casting was perfect.

Great price, Great package, Great delivery!

Thank you

3.0 out of 5 starsBrave, but could have been better

A brave film, although most of the main characters were clicheed (the Irishman, the Dutchman, the Canadian woman) and although Michael Sheen's character was the best, I didn't quite believe in him. The scenery is gorgeous and worth watching just for that. Didn't make me want to walk the Camino!

5.0 out of 5 starsPilgrims on the road to Santiago de Compostela

6 January 2016

Verified Purchase

A well acted film, pathos, humour , looks in the dark places that pilgrims take to the Camino to find an answer for.
Fantastic views of rural Spain and the route to Santiago de Compostela.
Gives a good representation of how a pilgrimage can bring people together and how they deal with the demons that drive them.
"The Way" I would recommend to any one considering the Camino simply to show the conditions on the route.
An all star cast, a good story, lots of emotion, what more can a film offer. Buen Camino.

5.0 out of 5 starsA brilliant film.

Thoroughly enjoyed this film. The characters were believable and at times very funny and at the same time, quite sad. The scenery was spectacular and gave you an overwhelming sense of space. It was very engrossing for the whole two hours or more. Would definitely recommend.

5.0 out of 5 starsSuch a lovely film

A beautiful film, watchable again and again. Main character is a lapsed Catholic, but I know that when he reached Compostela he came back to the Church. Other characters were interesting too. This is not a film JUST for Catholics - all will love it.
