Noah Emmerich, Edward Norton
What started out as a really rough beginning (it took me a while to realize that I wasn’t supposed to be thinking the football game was taking place 10 years previous and was actually a intramural sports league) quickly became an riveting narrative of deceit and corrupt authority figures. The interactions between
Farrell,
Norton and
Voight are fantastic … unique and real. Falling in along the same lines as
The Departed and
16 Blocks, this movie has enough in the ways of feeling of pain and loss to stand as genuine and vested.
As an aside, definitely one of my favorite moments was seeing Jon Voight as a drunk grandma over a Christmas dinner … simply amusing.
