Brief Synopsis – A young criminal escapes from prisoner on a quest across Texas in order to meet up with his wife and his daughter that he has never met.
My Take on it – I had heard that his movie was very good and I still have no clue why there are people who think so.
This movie moves so slowly and it takes forever for something to happen.
I couldn’t feel much sympathy for any of the characters and just wanted to movie to end. Casey Affleck is a great actor (loved him in Gone, Baby, Gone (2009) in the title role.), but here I didn’t see that he had much to work with.
The feelings I had after watching this were similar to what I felt after watching Stoker (2013), I felt that I must be missing something since many people thought both of them are brilliant, but I just see a boring movie that doesn’t add anything to my life.
If anyone out there can explain to me why this movie is good, please enlighten me.
Bottom Line – Very strange movie. Moves extremely slowly and isn’t very interesting.
Rating – Razzie Worthy
