_"It's fine. Innocent people can't afford me."_ This movie came and went and no one really cared so I never checked it out til now. Pity it didn't do well because while the story is ok, the acting is pretty good. RDJ, Robert Duvall, Vera Farmiga, Vincent D'Onofrio, Jeremy Strong, Billy Bob? This ... thing is packed! Might be a little too long, but the emotional father parts got to me.
