    While I enjoyed the film and commend the actors for there roles; I felt like there was a huge gap in the plot. It’s like it jump from square 3 to square 6 in a matter of moments and left that portion of the film out. The film was 2 hours, what’s another 25-30 minutes to fill the gaps. I bought the film and wish I’d rented it instead.

    Matthew McConaughey kills it and so does the kid. Great acting saves the poor content of the script. The script coulda been a little stronger with more substance but it does an amazing job depicting the BS the FBI was doing in these neighborhoods and how the justice system works. It has you wishing for a happy ending the entire time. Maybe rent it before you choose to buy it.
  • Great Drama, Fine Acting.

    I enjoyed it's a great story but the scenario at the end is somehow with not enought substence, expect that point the film is well done, acting is great, filming good. I think the movie need an aditional 30mn to make it complete =) Overall it's a good movie to watch in winter and at night alone.

    This could have been a good movie, but it’s just boring, Nothing much really happens, A kid starts informing for the feds to help save his dad, then the feds cut him loose, and he keeps dealing, and gets caught, and serves 30 years. That is not the synopsis, that is the whole story.
  • Another in a long line of trash from MM

    They decided by committee on this one. Put Matthew M in the lineup and we should make our distribution cost. Say no more. Its trashy, illiterate, ill conceived. Filmed by COMMITTEE not talent.
