**Here be spoilers**
Here is the proof that a movie, without any big explosions or gunfights. Mentally ill Karl is released from the hospital where he has been treated since killing two persons, one of them his mother. We get to follow Karl and his attempt to adjust to a normal life outside the hospital. He get a job as a low paid mechanic and become friend to young boy and his lone mother. He decide to move in to their garage and everything seem to go well. However, the mother's boyfriend is mean and potentially dangerous...
The story is good and interesting, and even if the pace is somewhat slow the movie never becomes dull. The cast put in a great effort as well, with Billy Bob Thornton as Karl in a very good performance. Not really much other to say, if you want to watch anything else than an action or comedy, this should be your choice...
7/10
