I finally got the chance to watch this film and boy I must say…wow.  Ben Affleck might not be known as a great actor, but you have to remember him and his buddy Matt Damon did write that great movie Good Will Hunting.

Well I think this certainly seals the deal that Affleck is far better on the other end of the camera.  This movie was his directorial debut and it’s certainly a intense movie without exhausting you.

It gave me the same feeling in terms of pacing and seriousness of the content as Mystic River.  As usual I don’t want to spoil anything, but if you get a chance check this movie out.

Casted in the main role is actually his brother Casey, who does a relatively good job in this role. Ultimately the story really drives this flick and Amy Ryan does an absolutely amazing job portraying a drugged up single mother.
