That is the perfect review of that film!

I liked Casey Affleck's performance alright, but enjoyed him in "Gone Baby Gone" much more.

Really, there's only a couple of movies Brad Pitt's been in that I really liked. It's not about his acting so much as I find his characters (or the ones he chooses to play anyhow) to be portrayed in a way that leaves me liking them less.

Thanks, BB. I agree with your coparison with Affleck in Gone Baby Gone, too.
