The performances are good, well-directed, and believable. Mr. Henriksen was terrific. I hope to see Viggo directing more projects in the future.

Lance Hendrickson is great if you want someone who is pissed off, depressed and has almost full blown Alzheimer's. Very sad and true to life character study. He also hates his son is gay.

Great acting all around, solid story, good directing. Anyone who has spent their whole life dealing with an emotionally and psychologically abusive parent will relate, and unless you've been there you probably won't understand why the son and daughter put up with it. I did. My 95-year-old father died a month ago after decades of slights and hurts, and he still managed to deliver one last slap after he died.

I disagree with some who think this is just about a disease or dementia as if it somehow changed the father - no, it just brought out more of who the father really was. I agree this it was about love - how some adult children still want to love and have the need to be loved back.

Warnings: This movie had a disturbing amount of verbal abuse in the form of homophobia and misogyny. It is definitely not for children. Be prepared.

It is an engaging story because it makes you feel. It makes you feel angry at the father, and sorry for the other characters. It is an effective and heart felt family drama.

I was a bit skeptic to the film due to the "bad" score, but I liked the cast and was willing to give it a try. I am glad I did. This is one of those good films, with depth and very good acting. The scandinavian actors struggle some with sounding canadian/american, but it's not hurting the film. I guess the negative reviews are from folks wanting something else, this is just a good movie.
