A little gem.

I really liked this thriller/drama and kept being surprised by it thru and thru.

The set up just felt superb and every aspect of film making is so well handled it all just seem to fall in place in this movie.

It's got a good story ,well directed,beautifully shot and a cast of natural feeling actors and with dialogue that felt very fresh to me and really added to the movie and made me laugh and even cry thru out.

The violence and sex is very moderate and was very reality based but handled well enough to keep the tension going.

The 2 young actors had a nice chemistry and I especially liked the quite moments between them in which they still seem to have a connection.

Some backstory on the girl was given by herself during dialogue in the middle of the film and it show cased well that this girl has acting chops.

Bill Paxton played the father of this girl and also a corrupt cop and I think it's one of his best roles and it was sad that he died with still so much greatness in him.

In this movie he's a bad guy and a bad father but there is still something in him that you sympathize with and that is hard to do.

This is a great movie,I highly recommend it.

Enjoy!.
