Good drama with some laughs

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. It had my complete attention from the opening and onward until the credits. Its a decent film to watch with a significant other if you cant talk her into Rambo 7.It leans more toward the drama side of things but definitely had some good laughs. It was casted well, as for I believe it was well acted. I cant really complain about much in this one.Romano lends himself to a great comedic supporting role to liven up the dark portrayal of the lead character; equating to a great balance in the movie.The ending was definitely fitting and made the movie end on a rather positive note; considering the movie takes you on a darker walk through out it was nice to see things summed up the way they were.

sad & depressing BUT somehow it works

This film was written & directed by Geoffrey Haley.I must commend him for creating 3 fine main characters & casting the right actors in each role.This is a somewhat sad & depressing movie, with very little humor. Somehow it actually works, I watched with keen interest the quirky goings on. Winona Ryder, who has having career other real life problems is back & she is just great, I do hope she continues getting more important roles.Wes Bently who started out like a ball of fire in American Beauty, then had trouble finding decent roles is equally good. He is a fine actor & deserves good roles, more like this.Ray Romano in a dramatic role (for a change) proves that he an do more the the comedy roles he does on TV>These 3 & the remaining cast members make you pay attention & listen.There is only one action scene towards the end it helps us understand a puzzling plot point.this is not a major film by any means, rent it & see it, I think you may like it like I did.Ratings: *** (out of 4) 82 points(out of 100) IMDb 7 (out of 10)
