Good enough. Matt Dillon does a great sociopath. If you know or want to know something about the mid-west, Kansas, Nebraska, small farming towns, then it's worth the watching. Filmed on locations that look real, are real, with a reasonably realistic portrayal of that life. It's a cheap rental if you can find it and a better waste of your time than the latest "reality show". They want ten lines of text for a comment, which explains to some degree, why there is so much drivel in the user comments that you find in IMDb. It doesn't take that much text to give you an idea of whether or not you'll like a film, really. Like crime drama? With a "just out of prison sociopath" that you'd really not like to meet? Then you'd likely enjoy this. If you've got any Midwestern farmer roots, you might also like it. I said that before I got to the significant "Ten Lines of Text..."
