Just watched this on my computer. What an awful film. Don't know what planet Ben lives on but:
- People do not steal kids for their good.
- A druggie mother decides she misses her child just when they find the money?
- Casey did not need to shoot the guy. That little morality bit was simply stupid.
- Can we be rid of Morgan Freeman, please?!
- Directing was off at a number of instances.
- the girlfriend was pathetic - no soul, no presence, nothing to make her someone I cared about.
on and on.
Casey was okay, but could have been more powerful.
