I was ready to turn the movie off after just the first three minutes, and this persisted past the first ten minutes into the movie. It is a week start, and there is nothing to engage the viewer (the writing and casting are largely to blame) early on. Having heard good things, I persisted, and being patient was rewarded. The movie picks up where it really needs to, and keeps it up to (quite close to) the end. There was a range of acting levels, and some plot holes, but it all came together. The ending itself could have been done better, and I would have ended it nearly ten minutes before the credits rolled. But it is not actually a bad ending, just not as strong as it could have been had they not tried to stretch it. Overall, it is worth watching, but not likely to merit another watch after the first.
