Plot

Michael Sullivan is a gangster in 1930's America and the fiercely loyal right hand man of the local kingpin. Due to the foolish and jealously motivated action of his bosses son, Michael suddenly finds himself on the run from his old employer with his own 12 year old son in tow and consumed by a burning desire for revenge. Road to Perdition is a powerful gangster drama; dark, tense immaculately performed and an intriguing follow up to Sam Mendes 'American Beauty'.
