5. Road To Perdition
Road to Perdition is an absolutely stunning film about a man who is a gangster, yet lives a normal family life pretending to be something far more official. Keep in mind, this man is played by Tom Hanks. His son sneaks into his car to follow him to work one night and witnesses something he shouldn’t have. This then forces the mob boss to make it his purpose to take out the man and his child.
The movie is features a dark, noir-style story that grabs you and pulls you in from the first frame. The cinematography of this movie is achingly beautiful, and the story hits you right in the gut, which is what made it even more shocking for people to find out it was based on a book by DC Comics.
