So we kind of liked it but let me tell you, it unfolds at a snails pace, there is hardly any plot, and the ending is open ended. It's one of those movies where the film maker is full of himself. Scenes are extended over nothing - bouncing balls, unsignificant dialogue, just extra crap we don't need. Even though we kind of liked it, we felt it was wasting our time.

Casey Affleck definitely did a great job and probably deserves to win the oscar. Michelle Williams does not deserve to be nominated. She is barely in the movie.

really I liked it aside from it being the feel good movie of the year

it is not for anyone who enjoys big budget Hollywood movies aimed at teen-aged boys

it is the story of a family and the struggles and turmoil because of the action of one and how it effects all of them just a slice of life Michelle Williams was amazing tell me you did not cry


Plus I have a small part ( no lines ) in it
