Goes on baby, goes on (forever)

Rating: 5/10 (1 June 2019)

So torn about this movie. I reckon without Casey Affleck in the lead it would of been a cracking film.
Michelle Monaghan, Amy Ryan, Ed Harris and Morgan Freeman were amazing in it and the story line although not without it's faults was brilliant. I enjoyed it immensely, however Casey spoilt it for me. I just couldn't take his character seriously. The role he played called for a stronger character and I just found his attempts at playing the hard man ridiculous, but instead we're supposed to believe that these characters feel intimidated by him.. Just didn't work for me. Which was a shame because on the whole it was a cracking film, that should of revolved around a stronger character.
It's still well worth a watch, if like me it passed you by at the time of release..
