Wild Ratings & Reviews
- tellum21 augustus 2025Personally my favorite Reese Witherspoon movie, she plays against type by not being a “sweetheart” and does a great job as someone overcoming past trauma.
- Hakihiko12 januari 2025A Raw and Reflective Journey Wild is an introspective and emotionally charged journey of self-discovery. Based on Cheryl Strayed's memoir, the film follows Cheryl as she hikes over 1,000 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail to confront her turbulent past and find healing. Reese Witherspoon delivers a raw and compelling performance, embodying Cheryl's vulnerability and resilience. Her portrayal captures the character's complexity, making her struggles and triumphs deeply relatable. Laura Dern, as Cheryl's mother, adds emotional depth, creating a poignant backdrop to Cheryl's journey. The film's cinematography is stunning, with sweeping shots of the Pacific Crest Trail highlighting the beauty and isolation of Cheryl's trek. The use of flashbacks to reveal Cheryl's backstory is effective, though at times it disrupts the pacing, making the narrative feel uneven. While Wild is a heartfelt exploration of grief, addiction, and redemption, it occasionally leans into formulaic moments that slightly dilute its emotional impact. The pacing can feel slow in parts, and the narrative sometimes lacks the urgency to fully engage viewers. Overall, Wild is an inspiring beautifully crafted film with strong performances and a meaningful message about perseverance and self-acceptance.
