For myself only, I've never been disappointed by anything done by William Petersen. He's a brilliant stage trained actor who gives 1000% to all the characters he's ever played. If he's given a less than stellar script, director, or whatever one can't blame him or his fellow actors for being stuck in a poor working situation. Any person no matter what type of work they do, often has to do the job they are given to the best of their abilities. This is the same for actors, even if Petersen is now well known because of CSI, he still had to take jobs at one point to pay the rent and care for his daughter like anyone else.
As for the quality of the film, I enjoyed it even if was a rather sad story of two men searching for a 'lost youth' or 'paradise' in some sense. I would've rather seen just Petersen with the ladies than a 3-way with Gary Cole, nothing against the guy, I just prefer William Petersen.
