Storyline

- TriviaMartin Sheenoriginally suggestedMichael DouglasorMel Gibsonfor the lead role, butEmilio Estevezhad written the main character's role specifically for his father and refused to make the film if Martin Sheen did not take part in it. During a screening of the film, Estevez turned to Sheen and said jokingly, "When Michael Douglas sees this, he'll fire his agent."
- GoofsAt the end of their Way, the four pilgrims directly go to the Cathedral, carrying their backpacks. This is not allowed, the bulk being an annoyance when there are too many people inside, and also for security reasons. The movie is set in 2010. Back then, it was still allowed to bring a backpack to the cathedral. It was changed not before 2013.

Featured review
... my sons way. Emilio Estevez has shown on numerous occasions, that he seems to be the more sensible one. Then again comparing him to Charlie Sheen (and his recent outbursts nonetheless) would be unfair to his brother. And while Martin Sheen also took on another surname to make it in Hollywood (Charlie and Martin succeeded), Emilio chose to keep his name, even though it may have blocked some doors for him.
For this movie he reunites with his father (not the first time he's directing him, but the toughest shoot he put him through yet). It's a very personal story about loss and finding one's way. The title is apt then and the journey ahead of the characters may be long, but also very insightful. Great acting and great locations make this a movie that will make you sentimental for sure.
