Featured review
This movie got heart
This is a must see movie - goes on my list all time favorites.
It is not a thriller but there is never a dull moment. It is no comedy either yet there were several occasions where I was laughing so hard that I was almost out of breath. It's difficult to classify.
The script has everything. Excellent plot, really fantastic dialogs, interesting characters, unexpected turns and a surprise ending... a great story and its well told.
The quality is excellent: filming, lighting, soundtrack, props, costumes ... everything.
Brian Cox is fantastic as the grumpy bar owner... Paul Dano is convincing as the homeless young man.
I thoroughly enjoyed this film.
