A bit slow paced, but overall very good.

Rating: 7/10 (20 October 2003)

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. It dragged it's heels in a couple of places, and really should have ended 15 minutes before it did, the final scenes adding nothing but minutes to the movie, but overall was

A quick summary:
1) It had likeable, believable characters, that were introduced bit by bit throughout the film until you thought you had a complete picture...
2) The ending was a suprise, but not a ridiculous one, and the whole thing was actually quite upsetting. (I haven't been moved by a movie since Matchstick Men).
3) Kevin Bacon, Tim Robbins & Sean Penn all excelled themselves.
go see it!
