Yes, great to see Eli again. Also a pleasure to see a well acted film not loaded with CGI .
This is really dejecting. I had heard (even on this board) good things about it, but it is a very good illustrations of what Hollywood may think is a "serious" movie. This is just a cheapie thriller based on characters who must pervert their appearance to make the story flow: the character played by Sean Penn is the more absurd (and he plays as usual making me wonder all the time, like Nicholas Cage does, how he ever got into movies): a family man or some kind of boss who kills people cool-bloodedly with a nice wifey who loves him all the more for this. The character played by Robbins (at least he's good at it) could be interesting but it must be subservient to the needs of the plot which is a series of coincidences that makes those noted about GBU in another thread look like an exercise in realism. The fact that somebody takes this trash seriously is what really makes me wonder...
This is defiently an above average film.
I've seen all these actor's in past movies and they defiently stepped it up for this film, especially Sean Penn.
Can't remember a single note of the score.
An indictment if ever there was one. When someone recommends a film to me but they are unable to say anything positive about the score I know not to take their recommendation seriously.
