Great acting by all. Affleck in particular was terrific. I had not read the book going in strictly off the previews etc. The first half of the film was in my opinion totally working on a mystery level. I had a bit of a problem with the all of a sudden THUST into that mystery element being taken away. Without spoiling anything, anyone who has seen the picture knows what i mean? But it is a well acted film and very watchable, i was not crazy about the ending. Not that everything has to be played out in films, or certainly not always expecting a happy ending, but in this case it did leave my wife and I a bit wanting another outcome. A bit of a mixed review i suppose, but very well acted film.
