Rumours surface that Sean Sullivan has been seen around. Believed to have been murdered 3 years earlier. While is brother Francis denys it a local mobster decides to find out the truth and finish the job himself.
A good film but Elijah Wood was miscast. He doesn't look like his brother but more like a son looking for daddy to bail him out. -

The film does not tell people what is happening very well, and only towards the middle do people get an idea what on earth was in fact happening. Elijah Wood is obviously miscast. Elijah Wood is very unconvincing as Edward Burns' younger brother, in fact he looks more like the son of Edward Burns. Looks, height, age and physique wise they are too different from each other.

luckily for me, i heart elijah wood -
MCT:January 21, 2008I dunno, it was a decent thriller. Kind've slow though. Very moody. All the language got old real fast, and the way it glorified the catholic church... plus the way they played the one strand of music throughout the whole movie. Elijah Wood looked way too young for his role. It all adds up to a movie that's not worth seeing unless you have nothing better to do.

This is a film about an ex mafia leader getting into trouble with gangs because his dead brother reappeared in the neighbourhood.The film is initially boring because of poor character development. The film does not tell people what is happening very well, and only towards the middle do people get an idea what on earth was in fact happening. Elijah Wood is obviously miscast. Elijah Wood is very unconvincing as Edward Burns' younger brother, in fact he looks more like the son of Edward Burns. Looks, height, age and physique wise they are too different from each other. This makes the film a lot less credible than it should have been. Otherwise, the plot is not bad, the direction is good, and the sets are nicely done.

MCT:March 21, 2007It was kind of hard to follow the first time I watched it, but the story was great and the acting was nicely done. This was a good role for Elijah, it kind of toughened him up a bit, but not in a way that made him seem phony.

I love this movie! I watched it because of Elijah Wood, and was surprised at how good it actually is.

MCT:December 7, 2006Okay, so, big gangster flick? Naaa, not really. Francis (Director Edward Burns) gets into trouble with the mob. His brother Sean, who has been missing for three years and assumed dead, shows up again and things get messy since a lot of people would rather see him stay dead. The movie is not bad, but it is really not that good either. Acceptable.

Was a very flat movie. Flat acting, though Wood and Dawson tried. You can only try so much with a bland script like that.
I did like the look of the film. Almost like a dreary painting at times.
But, that was about it. Burns did not do a good job directing this. -
MCT:June 8, 2006I remember really liking this movie-need to rewatch it to find exactly what it was. looking forward to it's next 'Good Friday'
