Is this going to be as good as I expect it to be? :confused: Looking for a movie that keeps you locked into it and piecing the puzzle together right up to the end.

A member of my family wrote the screenplay. :) All bias aside it's a damn good movie.

3 thumbs up....who would have thought that an affleck could act!? couple actors from The Wire as well, though only 1 has major part.

OK, well maybe I'll give it another try. I went to the movies and walked out on it after about 25 minutes. Does it start slow and build up?

No it's good all the way through, actually.

Fantastic flick. And Casey's a way better actor than his idiot brother.

i personally didn't like it at all...

i think the end was a weak attempt at a plot twist.

Wow, I thought this was a great movie. Definately a thinker at the end. In the bonus features, the writer of the novel said that good art doesn't answer questions, it asks them. This movie did that for me. Makes you think about when "right" is simply the slightly better of two "wrongs".

Sad movie really, but one I did enjoy. I actually just finished watching it on Blu-Ray (blockbuster rental) and I think I may have to buy this one. Will go right next to "The Departed".

Well, I enjoyed it. In the end he would have regretted either decision he had to make. Was strange watching this so soon after seeing The Assassanation of Jesse James. It was like listening to the "Coward Robert Ford" with a New England accent.

He would have, because he was an idiot. Personally, if I were in his shoes, I would have chosen the opposite course of action and never regretted it for a second.

I'm sure my niehgbors will quote you when they snatch my kid away because they can give him a better life than I can...all those NIN videos just can't be healthy.

Watched it last night; not my favorite movie, but pretty close. I thought it was very well done, very "down to earth" showing things that could happen right here right now. No BS.

Agreed. I would have no problem living with myself given the circumstances.

I wasn't impressed too much with this movie. I guess maybe because I have no kids or something, but it just didn't hold my attention.
