With all the big names in this movie I was expecting something really great--something well worth the price of two movie tickets. Unfortunately my husband and I were both very disappointed. The story line is very lacking, and the ending will leave you wanting more. The acting was superb, and some scenes were very powerful. The first half of the movie has you wondering what direction the plot is going to take. When the defining moment finally arrives, you expect a dramatic series of events as the characters twist and turn to make lemonade out of lemons. But there is nothing besides lemons in this offering. No resolution, no happy ending. If you're looking for a smart, interesting drama, skip this one.
