Wild

Hosted by
Reese Witherspoon is the angry, wounded soul of Wild. She commands the screen throughout her heroine's 1,100-mile journey of self-discovery and self-repair, on foot and mostly alone, from the Mojave desert to northern Oregon along the Pacific Crest Trail.

Reese Witherspoon carries the whole movie, even though this screen adaptation of Cheryl Strayed's autobiographical best-seller is burdened, like the book, with life lessons and unneeded explanations that it dispenses, like CliffsNotes, at every opportunity.
