A really good movie, which is made by its stars. While Viggo Mortensen (and Kirsten Dunst for that matter) are very well known, some might still not have been aware of Oscar Isaac to that point. A great actor who's playing the main role here and has a tough job to make a not really likable person, humane. He finds more than a few moments to make that work though.
Something that is very important for the rest of the movie. If you don't at least think there is more to him or have some sort of sympathy for his situation (he's not really hurting people), you will have a tough time enjoying the ride. And it takes you to places. It is predictable at times, but still more than enjoyable. Some might not like the ending, but I think it sums up everything that happened before ... and there couldn't be a better one (imho)
