Expected better

Rating: 7/10 (4 May 2018)

Bryan Cranston gives the worst performance of his career. Too much energy, void of any nuance, completely unbelievable as a former marine going with a friend to bury his dead son who had been killed in Iraq. Ruined the movie for me. Steve Carrel, and Lawrence Fishburne were excellent, Cranston was over acting for the first time in his career. I really like Cranston, but his attitude and ridiculous performance made the film unbelievable. It's too bad, serious subject on many levels. The film is worth seeing, but The Director should have reined in Cranston from giving such an over the top, bad performance. His complete disrespect of a dead marine and process of burial are hard to understand.
