Outstanding performances, direction., 20 August 2004
10/10
Author: bobcatwon from United States

This film might not be for everyone. But for those of us that like our flicks with out a lot of cheese, this is it. The performances by Jeffery Wright and Chris Penn are strong, and the movie is a throw back to the kind of films John Cassevettes might have be involved in. Nothing new here, just well done. No trickery. From the hip. I recommend it to anyone with and interest in the darker side of human nature. I wonder if the script was written as it was edited.The world that was created in the film is one place I never want to visit. I love movies like this for that very reason. The direction was confident, and the supporting players were all excellent. Everyone seemed to be real, not acting. At times the movie felt more like a documentary than a drama. The scene where they first put the kid in the cement thing was pretty creepy. I can't imagine a death like that. How awful. Good flick.
