Just watched this last night as it was on, and was really impressed by the performances.
I hadn't planned to watch it so I only caught just over half of it sadly, didn't even plan to watch that much as I was tired but it caught my attention.
I'd not really considered Nicholas Cage as a very good serious actor before as I haven't seen many of his more serious films like this and Adaptation, but he really impressed me in this.
Plus it made a change to see a film where there was no redemption of the main characters, it didn't end happily ever after and all throughout the film you could tell it was impossible to do so.
Definitely going to have to rent it now to see all of it properly. Really glad I watched it now.
