Hello, after years (about 7 or 8) I am "forced" to write somethig. FIlm industry (especially Hollywood) is in some serious trouble. Couple of movies are still good but most isn't - it's fine, maybe we will see something different in the future. But THAT I don't get!! What is with people consuming this kind of entertainment - really has this bul......t more than 7 out fo 10? OK: it's not a comedy it's not a thriller it's deffinitely not a horror movie Maybe, just maybe it is a very bad drama with some attributes of other genres picked by someone with very crude taste and shameless impudence of stealing bit by bit pretty much everything from other movies. And the saddest of all is: its genuinely boring and predictable.

So, it's not perfect, but almost perfect it is. I mean there is nothing about I love it or I hate it. Just very good film. I picked up this piece because I like Ed Harris very much - one of my favorite. He didn't disappoint me again. And the rest of acting was equally good - almost brilliant. Everything is OK - music, shooting, story, action, feelings, space for viewers to muse about relations and such. I wonder why so many people give relatively bad rating, it's just very nice movie. I admit - this is no review, just reaction to undeserved underrating. Give it a chance if you are not eager to watch big Hollywood blasts and chases but realistic story of people on the edge of society, but still part of it.

Great 8 of 10 Nothing personal. Is's just right about the quality. The fist half of the movie is very promising and potential. The second half is different for couple of Hollywood clichés. But I have to admit that the end brought even some tears. The hug between father and son is great. Not any, that one, specifically that one in the light of the whole story - I think - the kind of timeless story. Potential of a puppet who is part of man is very strong and virtually unlimited. At these circumstances - I mean "main stream" of wester movies - It's very smart and nice creation. More feeling and emotions than reason and smartness. And very frequently mentioned Mel Gibson as his role as "comeback"? I believed him every role regardless of the quality of movies. I have objections to some roles, but no objection to acting.
