First of all, let me shrug my shoulders to the expected stone-throwing from the usual gang of cynics. It gets old... so easy to rant on a movie like this. There -- I said what I wanted before I start this review.
I loved it. Simply said. The writing was impeccable, and the emotion level was rising at the right pace. The ending was everything I hoped for, and yes, expected. That's why I go to the movies. I sometimes what to simply indulge... and this movie did it for me.
One thing I could have done without, however, is the Josh Randall character -- the brother. Annoying to me in every aspect of the movie. Not funny, although obviously meant to be the funny guy of the show. Kind of a splinter... but thats me.
Overall, I had a great time, and the actors pulled it off amazingly well.
I give it an 7/10.
