There is no Jake Gyllenhaal to be seen

Rating: 9/10 (1 August 2015)

If you are thinking of going to see Jake Gyllenhaal act in a movie then save your money. There is no Jake to be seen, and if you can find any acting in this one you are sharper than I am. What you will find is Billy Hope, the character. I looked hard to spot someone acting the role but it didn't happen.
Jake Gyllenhaal does this more and more in each movie he stars in. Jake becomes the person from the script, completely. This guy has grown in his profession beyond what it is named. Jake becomes.
At this point I will say that anything that comes out with Jake Gyllenhaal on the marquee I am going to go see.
The memorable characters in this very well done story are Billy Hope, his daughter, a trainer, and one loyal true friend from childhood, all very much needing each other at this point in their lives.
I highly recommend you go see this one. I don't need to tell you the story.
