Jamie Foxx is very good and believable as Stan Tookie, the title character and main player here. The storyline follows through from beginning to the end (although the beginning is a bit weak compared to the rest of the movie).
It's a shame then, that the film is just to strict when it comes to it's morality. Everyone sees something else in it, so it's a shame that you only get one side of the story. Only one possible solution. The director did the thinking for you and tells you how to feel about this story. It'd be better if he had some arguments against his own beliefs in the movie, because it just seems like a one way road ... if you haven't seen the movie you might be confused about what I'm talking about, but you will get it, once you watch the movie. And it's worth watching, for the aforementioned Jamie Foxx performance!
