Sure, not perfect, but compelling subject matter and a different premise made me thoroughly enjoy this Liam Nieson performance. Guy Pearce delivers as usual, and you will stay until the end, guaranteed.

As one who enjoyed the Sopranos, mostly because of the intricate character development and interpersonal relationships, this movie drops you into Newark 30 years earlier and expects you to have that same connection immediately. It doesn't happen, and basically you feel like you visited your cousins in Jersey on the wrong weekend, and can't wait to leave.

Terrible. Watched because I loved Elysium and it had been mentioned in the same breathe. Awful.
