Extremely good intentions regrettably get bogged down in cliches and preachiness. Kaye claims it was recut without his input, removing its moral ambiguity, and evidence of this is clear in its overwrought use of slow-mo and dramatic score that often sledgehammers meaning to the point of parody. What remains is a well acted piece of socially conscious cinema with a few powerful moments and a career best performance from Norton as a former neo-Nazi on the hard road to redemption.

Ultimately, this is entirely Edward Norton's film. He takes complete control and comprehension of his character. He's mesmerizing throughout the whole film, from one role to the other, and it's mesmerizing to see that transformation. He brings a mostly mediocre script to life like few other actors are able to do.

Without Edward Norton’s emotive performance and my personal bias, Derek’s transformation into colour would be insubstantial, because the majority of the film is given instead to his transformation into a Nazi (certainly nothing solid is given to his brother’s character, despite him being presented as a protagonist). Undeniably affecting, with many excellent frames, but in the end the lack of balance and substance proves too significant for it to really have a lasting impact.
