“I think this is a well-crafted movie. It is an intriguing story, nicely filmed with interesting NYC locations (you will even see the former WTC towers in a few shots, which now seem poignant yet oddly sobering).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003enI LOVE the performances: everyone comes across as quite compelling and convincing in their respective roles. (The only part that didnu0026#39;t work for me was when Tom Hanku0026#39;s character goes a little wacko with that shotgun in his apartment, but I guess I can forgive that minor deviation.)u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe story seems very much like a fable… and it brings to mind the old saying that every fable has its grain of truth.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGo see it. Itu0026#39;s better than critics would have you believe. (I havenu0026#39;t read the book, but I intend to shortly).”
