Arguably Isaiah Washington's best work. Thought provoking and on point.
Everyone touched by violence should see this film to see how murderers
are made. This film is not meant to be sympathetic to the killers but
rather to start a dialog on how killers are made and what we can do to
help people understand. It also highlights the issue of mental illness
in our society and how we don't do enough, especially for our vets to
address this problem. The director and cinematography should be
applauded for this effort. Some of the best camera work I've seen in
years coupled with an excellent script and vision by the director. For
those who are looking for a sympathetic view for the victims, this is
not that film. Yes, we should never forget the victims of these
horrific crimes, but that's not what this film is about. It's about
reaching those people who don't understand that sometimes killers are
products of their circumstances and/or environment. A must see.
