In my perspective, Keanu Reeves was always a great actor and I think he portrayed the character of Nelson amazingly well. In the beginning he had that aggressive behavior typical of a workaholic, narcissist kind of high functioning psychopath in the competitive work world, and then, with a gradient, we see the character change and unfold, and the behavior changes day by day in that November. Although I respect other people's opinions and reviews, I think Keanu captured brilliantly those changes. Of course not of that was possible without the charisma of Charlize Theron character - Sara Deever. The unconventional, in the opposite side of the social spectrum woman, with Nelson think he has nothing in common.
Besides the roller-coaster that Sara turn in Nelson life, there's other themes that are debated and exposed. Firstly, the concept of bulling and moral harassment. And, the most important, in my eyes, was the bring up the question of animal rights, specially the questions of domestic animal testing, the potential slaughter for consumption proposes. Overall, the consideration that domestic animal are not objects, but beings with feelings and rights, and that deserve all unconventional love and respect. Their great purety is that they recognize it and give back all the love they get. So, Sara character expose us the relevance of those themes, and most importantly - the necessity of bravery and courage and to rescue those innocent animals of those terrible living conditions, so, even worse - those threats to their own lives. So, I felt very apprehensive in the adoption by a Chinese man in a decrepit van, that don't even show any requirements of love, respect, tenderness, affection or the slightest interest in the innocent dog, threat him like an object or a pice of something. Luckily, that was on proposed in the script, and I was very happy with the overcome, and the rescue of Ernie.
Overall, I will have this piece 7 stars out of 10 available.
