Very good performances but the best way I can describe it is “loud”.

I’ve seen worse movies but haven’t seen a more annoying movie since 16 Blocks.

Already only $5 on iTunes for purchase. Now that's a fall from grace after all that burbling oscar buzz I was hearing on podcasts.

Yeah, and a bit exhausting. I'm not sure what all the oscar buzz was about, perhaps because Sandler actually acted in this one. Still a solid film though.

Kevin Garnett was excellent. I didn't know this until now, but he was also an extra in the '94 film Blue Chips along with Jim Caviezel.
