Movie Review Mania By Christina

Starring: Mark Ruffalo, Ethan Hawke, Amanda Peet, Will Lyman, Brian Goodman, Donnie Wahlberg (Yes Mark’s Brother) and Angela Featherstone

This movie is based on actual events and is about 2 long time friends who get involved in crime as means to support their families and causes strain on their friendship and becomes detrimental to their families.

Mark Ruffalo and Ethan Hawke are outstanding in their performances. I truly felt for them as they go through many drug and alcohol phases and crime just trying to keep thier families financially secure. The supporting cast was excellent, all of them working together well. This movie is hard hitting and will stir plenty of emotions. It is very intense and anyone who enjoys a good crime story that is not so predictable will love it.

This movie came out yesterday on DVD, well worth a look. I give it a rating of a 8.
