Road to Perdition is a great movie, when i saw this movie i don't realize any serious flaw. The storyline is solid and consistent. The basic plot is about Mike Sullivan(Tom Hanks) that works as a hitman to John Rooney (Paul Newman). The Paul Newman's character is almost a father for Sullivan but this relationship star to break, when Sullivan and Rooney's son going to talk with a man. The result of this "visit" is Connor Rooney murder this man and worst Michell Sullivan's son see everything. Despite Sullivan said that your son don't talk Connor try to kill Michell Sullivan but this attempt fail. However, Connor himself attempt and kill Sullivan's wife and Peter (his other son). In response Sullivan going on to revenge and try to kill Connor. John, try to fix this situation sending a man to talk with Sullivan, but he refuse for two motives he want his revenge, and don't trust in Connor.
Spoilers ------------
Tom Hanks is great and his role, Hanks looks like a ordinary man and never resemble a hitman, but he is. I think that the most hitman, doesn't resemble a hitman but i simple man. Sullivan is cold man and always ready to kill someone. The only fear of Sullivan is that his son choose the same destiny that he choose. Paul Newman, is almost a typical mob, sweet and gentle but is hard when necessary. John Rooney has only one flaw, his son Connor and try to protect the best that he can. Also, Mendes directed this movie very well and the pictures are great.
My vote for this movie is 8
