This is a hidden gem with a great story everyone will relate to, and great music. I love this movie. Get 'The Dog Problem' too, another Scott Caan film.

Gets under your skin January 9, 2007 Lisa Garvin (Houston, TX USA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
OK, OK, I confess to being a fan of all things Caan (James, Scott), but this little movie is something special. I rented it to ogle Scott Caan, but ended up buying my own copy because I couldn't get the story out of my head.
Caan wrote, directed and starred in this film, which received kudos at one of those high-tone film festivals (can't remember which). It's a poignant story of two men-children at a turning point in their lives, where they could either go on fighting and drinking every night or make something of themselves. With a little guidance, Rusty (Shawn Hatosy, excellent!) finally moves past the death of his rodeo star father. Dallas (Caan), however, is a party animal 'til the end. Although his life is an object lesson for how not to behave, Caan makes the character sympathetic and likeable.
The black and white still photos in the beginning are beautiful, and Scott looks so much like his father in some of them, it's un-Caany (!). Nice addition to anyone's indie film collection.
Good Flick from Outta the Blue August 23, 2006 40yo Average American White Guy (Mississippi Gulf Coast) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This very small comedy/tragedy/slice of life was tossed into cable rotation... after noticing that, without thinking, I had flipped it on to run again for the THIRD TIME, it occurred to me that I must really like it! Huh. Snuck up on me.
Gotta hand it to first-timer Scott Caan: not only does he do a good acting job here, but he has written this story in such a way that, although there are no big action scenes (keeping the budget tight) the excellent dialogue is punctuated with enough events (usually both violent and funny) that the movie flows nicely from front to back. Rates comparison to the much-bigger-budget "Good Will Hunting".
Shawn Hatosy is as strong as ever in the lead, and for the first time in a long time, I really enjoyed Jeff Goldblum here. A suprisingly good little flick.
A Great Film!! September 3, 2005 Marjorie Clark 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I saw this film for the first time at the Toronto Film Festival...and have watched it several times since then. It is a fabulous movie! It is loud and edgy, but also very moving and even funny. Scott Caan has done a wonderful job as writer/ director. Everyone in the cast (what a cast!) delivers very memorable performances. I highly recommend this film!
