It was okay. Not sure why it won so many awards, but it was pretty decent. Story was a little wonky and the characters weren't very likable but I liked it for the most part.

A great story and great acting once again from Russel Crowe.

A much more gentle role than perhaps we'd come to expect from Russell Crowe (following hot on the heels of 'Gladiator').

Es un excelente drama con un minimo toque de comedia.
El gran problema es que no tiene tanta gracia verla dos veces o más.
