It has a good cast, has an emotionally involving story, and is set against a beautiful landscape. The execution, however, was really poor. The actors still do a good job, and it's difficult to ruin a picture-perfect backdrop, but the way the story is presented takes away anything that the film is trying to give its audience. We can't feel for these characters, and we can't learn anything from their actions, because the way the story is told makes that too difficult for us.

Very good film and Eric Bana really shows his capability to produce full rounded characters. I was particularly glad to see Marton Csokas in a role where he's not a villain, I think he gets typecast as one far too much. The story itself feels like a bit of a confession from the son's point of view to his father as he finally realizes how hard it was for his dad. Complete with the realization that his mother made life even more tough. Good film.

could only manage about 20 minutes then I decided life was too short.
