I Am That Man

I was led to believe this was a quality movie. Endorsed by a trusted source this movie failed at every turn. The story line has a good premise, but poorly written, directed and edited. The acting in this movie was sub-par at best. I would say that I was disappointed by how the lead actor was directed, but the lead actor is the director. Sad, just sad.

Independent films with small budgets can sometimes be rare gems. I Am That Man is such a gem. I watched with several war fighter, combat veterans who told me it was the most realistic portrayal of a veteran's struggle when returning from battle, they all cried at the end. The story has a positive message against anti-Semitism and a redemptive arch for the hero who isn't overblown. This movie is about the subtleties and quiet intensity. The fights are realistic, not Hollywood hokey. I wish it had more budget for back story scenes and music but overall still a 10 out of 10! Matthew Marsden deserves the praise for his writing, directorial debut and his always stellar acting that made him such a huge star in Great Britain.

Good movie. Solid acting from the main players, little shaky from the supporting cast. I enjoyed the story line.

The script and writing is spot on and is what makes the difference.
