Ian Douglas: I was expecting a cliched American yarn and in some ways it is, but since it is based on a true life story, it held my attention. Good performances in this drama-cum-thriller.
Lyn Massaad (32): Robert de Niro should win an oscar for his performance. Great movie...I enjoyed every minute of it!!!!
Joel Farrel (16): It was such an inspiring movie and the best part was that it wasnt predictable. Cause I hate it when you watch a movie and know what is going to happen around the corner
