Rated R for violence and language
Starring Sam Rockwell, William H. Macy, Jason Isaacs
Directed by David M. Rosenthal
The Story:
John (Rockwell) is out hunting for an elusive deer, takes a shot and a girl lies dead. He drags the body to hide it, and runs across some cash from backwoods criminals (Isaacs). Naturally, John takes the money, and so begins a game of high stakes tension building as the bad guys come to get their money back.
A single shot... if I drank, I would have used several of those to try and get through this movie.
Slow.
Quiet.
Rambling.
None of those words are meant in a good way.
I love Rockwell.
I love Macy.
I love Isaacs.
I put the movie on fast forward eventually to see if I would ever get anything out of it... but no.
A dreadful waste of talent. The sound on the movie was so low, half of the conversations are muted or unintelligible.
Plus, the movie stretches out to nearly 2 hours...
of boredom!
Save yourself.
Final Grade: D-
Rewatchability/Purchase Factor: Only as a cure for insomnia.
