This movie started out great. It had A Simple Plan/Fargo kinda feel to it. Then right after the son gets kidnapped it goes completely downhill. There was a good 30 to 40 minutes where it felt like I was watching a totally different movie. And whatever happened to the missing 500k? It never gets explained. The mob boss has a conversation with Annie and apparently all is forgiven. Also what was up with that strange shot in the end. Who the hell was sitting on the boat in the middle of a lake? Was that supposed to be Jimmy hunched over dead? I didn't get it. When all said and done despite the second half it was a decent movie. Not something I'd watch again but worth checking out. 6 stars.
