hype.

Rating: 4/10 (22 January 2006)

overall, it's not a terrible movie, but it's not as spellbinding as you might want to believe. i think that the performances are rather well done , but no one really stands out and breaks away to an extraordinary performance. i must say though michelle williams is very impressive since we last saw her on a WB drama. heath ledger mumbles his way through the dialogue and jake is average. i felt like there was no love between these men until the very end of the film. the rest of the time i was upset for what they had done to their families, each other and ultimately themselves.
even though the ending did, in fact, get to me, i was still disappointed in this film.
