Could have been much better if only...
Could have been much better if only the climax had been more believable.
Out of respect to the actors I don't want to criticize this movie too much.
Just watched this last night with the family. We all felt the climactic points were contrived and not entertaining.
This movie tried to walk a line between being a serious crime thriller and a Disney-ish TV movie.
Still, it would have succeeded if the payoff had been more satisfying.
I'd be curious to know if the original script didn't have more money built into the climax and at least gave the characters something to do.
