Top acting

Rating: 7/10 (5 February 2006)

Even though the movie is long, it is definitely worth it. It might not be the best movie I have seen but the acting performances are truly great. Phoenix is very convincing as a lost soul. I was actually amazed to realize it is actually their own voices you hear. I am not familiar with most of Cash' work but Witherspoon and Phoenix were very convincing. One of the nicest things about the movie I found is to watch a man who can be loving and caring one moment and the next scene he can be as scary as only Jack Nicholson can be. Phoenix and Witherspoon deserve their nominations.
7 out of 10 for the movie. 10 out of 10 for the acting.
