Wow, the little girl Alexis played by (Ryan Simpkins) was wonderful. She really took over the screen and brought so much truth to the role. Simpkins really seemed to play into the role and actually be that child in the story. She's like what? 7? Wonderful. Excellently played AND very cute. Bravo. I hope we see more from this young lady in the future. I saw Sherrybaby in LA 2 nights ago and really enjoyed the truth to this story. Gyllenhaall gave it her all and you can see that on screen. I have also seen Gyllenhaal on the talk shows and hope that the film gets wide release. I feel it is a story to be told and heard. I understand it was written about the a friend of the director's. Interesting concept really. Maybe I too can come up with a screen play that way. Seriously, good film, and I loved that girl!
I loved this film. It was sensitive, extremely moving and very uplifting.
The bond that these two men shared was beautifully portrayed by the actors. The moment where the hostages are both released and reunite at the airport was so poignant it left a very strong impact. This film takes place for the most part in a cell. But I found it gripping, fast paced and beautifully shot.
The story of these two men is inspirational. I felt privileged to watch this film.
