Let me start by saying, the acting and cast was amazing. The script fairliy easy to follow which I find important. However the begining is very slow, almost to where my partner was dozing off. She isn;t a night person as am I. My overall opinion is I go to movies to get away from lifes trials and tribulations and this movie didn't do it for me or my partner. I know that life is full of this kind of situations but I'm more of a action film buff. I.E. Star wars, Raiders of the lost Ark and so on. These are fun and entertaing films but there are lots of folks that like this kind of film so I'd give it a score of 10 on acting. 8 on script layout. But a 3 on genre. This strictly and adult film at least 18 years old. Directing was very good, I didn't like the film,

I should preface this review by saying I typically despise these dark, slice-o'-life drama, as I could just as well go live my own life, if I wanted a dark slice o' life rather than escape to the movies. No...I'm much more into spandex-clad hardbodies blowing things up and saving the world. That said, I was lured in by the Julia Roberts bits, in the previews I'd seen, and the all-star cast. From a small, rural town in WV, myself, I found the scenarios and characterizations highly relatable and superbly portrayed. While I've not seen the stage production--which I hear is also fantastic--I can only imagine the film benefits from from the location shoots, which introduces the environment as an additional character. While all of the casts shines, it's especially nice to see Julianne Nicholson, who seems to always turn up in my favourite shows like an unexpected jewel.

Although the film doesn't have the same impact as the Broadway show did, the film is still very effective and pretty juicy. Great performances all the way around. It's nice that the playwright was able to do the screenplay so he could make his own decisions about how to slim it down for length. At this point I don't know what I'm missing from the play, only how I feel about the impact, which is still a lasting sensation from seeing the play. Glad they made a movie. At the time of the Broadway show I bet the guy sitting next to me that M.S. would do the movie and low and beholdÂ…!
