  • Adam "Theflikfreak" trotted along to the opening night of the Gold Coast Film Festival to have a beverage and catch the brand new film from legendary Australian Filmmaker, Bill Bennett and his memoir of sorts as he adapts his book from 2014 "The Way, My Way" about his 800km pilgrimage across Spain with the Camino de Santiago. But...is it a walk too far for this filmmaker...and the audience #moviereviews #filmcriticism #cinemarelease #filmreviews #instantmoviereview #movie #goldcoastfilmfestival #gcff #billbennett #australianfilmindustry

    I think you need to walk the camino so you can relate to this film. I’ve walked lots of caminos. It changed my life !

    I really enjoyed this film! Reminded me of my trip last year to Europe without the pilgram!

    I just saw this. I didn't like the main protagonist at all and he grated on me.But I see that it might be the direction rather than the accomplished actor. Scenery is great in this film and the women save it from complete disaster. books in 90s,remember them as charming. Wish the film was a little more like that.

    Yes, have to agree with your review. To me it seemed fake and contrived.
    I have walked 2 Caminos, and this film does not reflect my experience at all. Perhaps because I don't walk the popular Francis route as the director did, and perhaps I am not walking for the social element.
    But each person should walk their own Camino, without any expectations or pre-conceived ideas.

      Awesome insight and yes...I feel like it is a very personal journey

      I agree - I walked the Primitivo (original route) almost 10 years ago and it was a blessing to mostly be alone without the hoards on the Frances route, still plenty to socialise with in the evening but when I hit Melide and the routes joined, I ended up walking my own route south and cut around the south of the airport and it was glorious. I dont think any movie about the camino does it justice. Martin Sheen's The Way only fosters more group tourists rather than real pilgrims

    You are completely wrong. You don’t know what you are talking about. Great story, great movie.

      Totally agree with this review. My partner and I have walked the Camino 3 times , the French way twice and the Camino Norte, and in 2025 are walking the via de la plata from Seville. It’s an addiction! Why do we walk it? For the adventure, the challenge, the joy and simplicity of life when you are on the Camino. They are truly the happiest days of my life. Even when I’m tired and the mountains are sooo high and I’m tired, I love it and am so filled with the desire to jump on a plane and start tomorrow!

    I liked the Martin Sheen movie. I'd love to do it at some point, if global warming doesn't burn Spain up, or the Muslims don't take it back over.
