I gave this movie a "2" out of respect for Billy Bob Thornton, but it was embarrassingly awful! I don't know if "slow" can be used to describe the film, perhaps "pointless" is a better fit! In the beginning it reminded me of "The Gift", which I feel was a very good movie, but by the climax, (if there was one), I began to feel terribly infuriated by my mother who suggested we watch the film and who later fell asleep 45 minutes into it. I read the other comments and if you loved, "O brother, where art thou", than you would surely be captivated by this film. But, if you like movies with some sort of plot, save your dime- this ain't it! You have been warned! The writer should really stick to acting and portraying cops, he's much better at it!
