I'm glad this only cost me £3.75

Rating: 2/10 (10 January 2009)

I watched this film a couple of days ago and I thought it was dreadful. It's release in the UK was delayed so it's taken me a while to watch it. It's had many great reviews but I didn't enjoy it at all. As a few other reviewers have said, the dialogue is difficult to follow and the acting is awful. This film didn't live up to my expectations in any way.
Without wishing to reveal too much about the plot, I also thought it was pretty unrealistic in terms of the attempted 'moral complexity' of Casey Affleck's character. His female companion also has some pretty dumb expressions on her face during the movie which I think would have been commented on in 'real life'.
It's a pity really because I think the idea was a good one but it was just put together in such an awful way.
