| User ReviewErika GGreat Movie, Love Chris Pine's singing voice and liked the fact that his real father played his father in the movie! |
| User ReviewMike CWow, not even five people have rated this one on imdb, and no one really has rated it on flickster/facebook either. I really wanted to like it, and gave it a generous rating, but it's just a little too much. The town is a little too quaint...if it's going to be that small and have that much going on, well I don't know what to say. A whole lot takes place in this movie, in this small town, with these few people, in about eight hours. On top of that, the twists are fairly predictable or disheartening. It does accurately capture a few smalltown elements, and there is a certain grittiness to it, much like Larry Brown novels. Bre Blair is a super fox and fits the role of redneck queen of sorts well. I finished it with no problems and liked that not everything was pleasant, but it's just too busy and unbelievable to be taken too seriously. |
| User ReviewMargaretha T60/100. The convincing and good performances from everyone give this film the feeling it was meant to feel, being trapped in small time life and dreaming to get out. Well cast, appropriately simple cinematography, good music. It's not a great film, but it was good enough to hold my interest throughout. Well done. |
| User ReviewAndrew LEverything that this movie tried to accomplish, didn't do it all that well. Chris Pine and Bre Blair where the only ones who tried to carry this movie and they do well in their scenes. The rest of the story, introducing all of his friends and the people where he lives, is great but there could have been a bit more added. In most of the parts the story manages to get it's point across. This one is definitely worth a rent if you are a fan of Chris Pine. |

| User ReviewJenn TA movie really about nothing. At first, I didn't think I was going to like it, but after a while I became interested in what was going on. |
| User ReviewKym (c my community profile) RIt's a drama, and not much of it really. Though the situations seem lifelike and the characters and the acting are praisable, at times it just seems like another dreary tale of people who don't really have a valuable tale to tell. |
| User ReviewLexie TIt's such a delight to see Octavia Spencer in movies no matter how small the role she plays, yet, her smile brightens the film. But, this movie is not about Ms. Spencer's character, it's about a collection of various small townfolk and it takes the length of the movie to describe that they are all related/interconnected before ending with one breaking out of their self-imposed rut - Chris Pine's Rhett Ryan is the sole breaker-outer. I felt the movie started like many different trains screaming towards another and converging when Brent Briscoe's character, Donny, takes a young boy on a fishing trip without permission. Thereafter everything is tied up nicely and how these people's lives are intertwined. It had a slow start but once all the characters were explained, the trained started rolling. |
| User ReviewEmer LLocal town story of resident trying to make it into the big time. Chris Pine is subtle and slow moving into an obvious laid back storyline. |
| User ReviewRated NCannot deny that I'd never have given this movie a second glance if it wasn't for Chris Pine. It's takes a long slow look at the intertwined lives of small town folk. Chris Pine may be the main attraction but every single actor plays their part to perfection. Just to add... I was blown away by Chris Pine's singing at the end. Who knew?!! |
