Well directed, well acted film. While watching this film, I actually felt each character's torment and desperation. Job well done.

Grim tale of unhappy families; excellent performances all round, interesting, absorbing but probably not a film you'd watch a second time.

MCT:May 15, 2008dont no how to rate this one :S perhaps watching it in a different mind set wudve helped..i dont no. it started out with a good, different plot but the direction and the way the story progressed just killed it for me :S after an hour n 20 minutes i was bored out of depression :S even the twists in the story and how everything catches up to the characters was depressing :S philip seymour hoffman had a few moments specially the one where he cries out in the car wid his wife. but to tell u the truth, i cudnt even finish it. that's right i dont no how it ends n frankly i wouldnt recommend it to ne1 :S

The fact that this movie was given 4 stars by the Flixter community makes me wish I were banished from this lame-ass society. The movie was terrible. Terrible! The title isn't very meaningful, the story was repetitive and choppy (not at all artistic) and the acting was questionable. Seeing PSH weep in the car, covering his face and yelling, "It's not fair, Dad!" was excruciatingly painful not only to his character but also to us, the poor audience. I didn't care about the characters and the movie felt way too long. I wonder if the devil knows when the audience's interest is dead.

A movie for intelligent people. Also mainly for an adult audience, not a gross-out teenager comedy, or a film about street racing, or comic book characters. But for people interested in watching a legendary director, great acting, and a metaphor for letting greed and materialism rule your life - well worth the time.

Well written and acted movie about 2 greedy brothers stealing from their family's business. A movie with a lot of flashbacks that gives you the fit the pieces of the puzzle kind of movie. Also this was the perfect example why these parents should have given their boys up for adoption when they were born. I think the ending could have been more explanatory regarding one of the characters.
