Walk or Die
IMDb Plot: A group of teenage boys compete in an annual contest known as "The Long Walk," where they must maintain a certain walking speed or get shot. Directed by Francis Lawrence.
For me, the best part of taking a walk is the ability to clear my mind & focus on what’s really important. @jointhelongwalk is not that. It’s 50 so-called “kids” walking up to 300 miles nonstop at a crisp 3 MPH, without bathroom breaks or sleep. Not challenging enough? Toss in the threat of being shot to death (in gruesome fashion) as @MarkHamill growls at you from the back of a humvee. @StephenKing wrote it, but I had to watch it. I made it to the final 5, before opting out myself. (Only) 2 interesting characters (Cooper Hoffman, @davidjonsson__) isn’t enough reason to stay any longer.
Grade: D-
