I was tempted to pass on this movie until I saw Phillip Seymour Hoffman, then I knew I was in for a thrill. I was entralled early on as this is a sort of end of your seat kind of ride, I was hoping for an upbeat ending but you kind of expected that this story could not end very well. I did not know that it was taken from a real life crime drama. So I had no way of knowing the outcome. But it was a thrill, and with the lineup of Hurt and Driver supporting you can’t go wrong. I have already decided to own this one. It’s a must see!
