English At first, it seemed that Sam Elliott was just playing his overaged character of himself (as actors tend to nowadays), but as the movie went on, it became clear that it wasn’t that personal after all. It’s also true that this movie seems pretty mediocre, but it’s got a certain something – even if it was just Sam Elliott whose charisma is giving the movie some extra energetic punch. The lead’s charm can do a lot of good for a movie and this one is the shining example. ()

English Sam Elliott shows his acting abilities to the full here, handling a fairly shallow story about a man who gets through an unpleasant phase in his life with honor and basically without any pathos. Moreover, he has great colleagues, and I'm beginning to think that especially Laura Prepon is actually a very good actress and worth paying attention to. ()
