I watched this because I've always admired Jared Leto, but wasn't sure what to expect. It turned out to be a really decent story worth watching, though a bit slow-moving and a little soap-operaish.
Where in the middle of the line theres a twist thats givesa different direction to the whole movie, and here kinda worked but still maybe is the lack of chemistry between the leadings or the history is just not strong enough to emote the watcher.
the story semmed thin, the actor wasn't really convincing..but Jared Leto is absolutely gorgeous so yeh..and there was one scene I really liked.
Pretty good, heart warming a bout a cruel father who cut sons off because he saw himself in them, and betrayal of a friend.
it came together so welll at the ending, really good movie. jared played really well. Yayyy!
