Review: I quite enjoyed this touching story about a man whose on the run after escaping prison and ends up falling in love with the lady who offers him a lift with her son. The storyline was very well put together and the performances were emotional and extremely realistic. The movie does take some time to get going and it slightly predictable but still a joy to watch. It really does make a difference when you get top class actors acting together with a decent storyline. Brolin & Winslet are great and the little boy also added intensity to the sensitive situation. Anyway, if your into your emotional dramas then this movie is a great watch. Enjoyable!
Round-Up: It's weird that I hadn't heard of this movie before it got released on DVD because Brolin and Winslet are top actors who usual star in big budget movies. Brolin, who starred in the weak Old Boy and takes the lead in the new Sin City, has made some bad choices in his career but, his good does outdo his bad. He was brilliant in No Country For Old Men and as the kingpin in the second Wall Street movie, and he shows his professionalism in this movie. Winslet seems to only come out of the woodwork when she really likes a script because she has already proves herself as a top a tree in movies like the obvious Titanic and I loved her performance in Revolutionary Road. Anyway, the planned getaway was appalling, which I blame OK the writer, but the ending was sweet and emotional.
Budget: $18million Worldwide Gross: $19million
I recommend this movie to people who are into there drama/romance movies about a couple who get together under the worse circumstances. 6/10
