It's a study of violence being dealt with a typical type American family with a father who is an extraordinary position thourghout the movie..that's what I walked away when I saw this movie. I don't despise you because you dislike the movie, alot of my friends hated it and I think they understood it..the script was written simple and some scenes were stupid cliches (e.g. The teen fights the bully because of that whole baseball dilemma) But I enjoyed the theme of the movie and the acting. William Hurt's 10 or so minutes on screen were brilliant - he had to deal with happiness, anger and suprise all in that short time. And in your argument you bring up the there was short violence in 3 scenes..are you saying more violence was needed to make the movie better? Elaborate that a bit more for me.
