So with the knowledge that I had to watch some of my NetFlix movies if I ever hoped to receive disc 1 of The Tudors from them, I watched this character study/crime drama last night. It's pretty much exactly what you'd expect. And that's not a bad thing at all. Especially not when what you are expecting is a Joseph Gordon-Levitt vehicle. I love Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and he did not disappoint. Beyond his turn, for the most part I liked the writing, and there was a nice, unexpected supporting turn from Jeff Daniels. And Bruce McGill is so good at those fatherly scenes. All in all, it was a nice diversion. It gets a thumbs-up from me.
