Finally got around to seeing this one. Had I known it was Cronenberg, I would have been more prepared for the pace. As it was, I ended up checking my email a couple of times during the movie. Verdict? Liked it, want to see it again. Thought the ending was alright and Viggo did an OK job. You could almost see him change between the two characters/personalities. Another actor may have done a better job with that. The end was fine for me. The only real problem I had with the movie was the trite bully. I understood what he was there for (to show how the son changed because of his dad's actions) but really... you couldn't come up with anything original? Pretty boy sports star that drives a hot rod? Plus, any movie with William Hurt in it drops a star on my scale. While he did a fairly decent job for him, it still sucked. Emote man! Come on, you can do it!
