It's sad to see so many ppl not appreciating this fine film. Us older folks remember classic stories, like South of Heaven, that portray real people faced with extraordinary challenges. Old westerns come to mind, where the hero is thrown into a predicament that can't easily be fixed.
This film is a modern day tragedy with realistic characters. Several times the hero did act on instinct. Consistently did the villain remain treacherous-while revealing his softer side, as did the heart of Annie remain true.
Believable supporting cast, music that compliments the action and a script that hit all the beats.
The direction of this film, the script, acting, score and cinematography all combined to deliver an emotional drama that entertains.
Are there flaws in this movie? A couple small question marks but even those are forgiven without taking away from the overall story.
I really wish filmmakers would make more pictures like this. My wife and I are only 59 but we were engrossed watching this because it's not b.s. Gangsters sometimes have heart and good guys sometimes become a badass to get the job done.
The kid trying to live up to his dad's reality was another nice touch.
Lotta good stuff goin' in this movie.
**to the loser bashing this film.."step off punk." Jason proved he's just as good at drama as he is at T. Lasso.
To the entire cast n crew-Job well done, we thank you!
