when i was trying to decide whether or not to see this movie i figured, 'see what imdbers have to say...' but there were only two comments and they were a bit too positive for me not to be suspicious. as in, 'they're probably connected to the movie somehow...'. but i took a chance anyways b/c i recognized one of the actors on the cover... now i know they were telling the truth...surPRIsingly good... even though the actor i recognized AND another one i recognize(though i'm too lazy to research their names ;-) were both on EXcellent TV shows... i guess 'six feet under' could be considered 'tv'. even though it's cable... the character from this show that's in the movie is the black gay cop/security person/lover of one of the brothers...David. now 'dexter', actually... the other that i first recognized was on '24'. he's the actor that plays the character 'tony almeida'. both good actors... but it's not just THEM that carry the movie...the big surprise for me is how well written it is... if i can guess too many times what dialogue will be before the characters open their mouths, i'm usually not going to watch for too long... i noticed fairly quickly that this wasn't going to be the case with this movie... and it wasn't JUST the dialogue...it was well paced, camera-work helped tell the story instead of amateurishly getting distractingly in the way... in case this isn't obvious yet, this is a recommendation... nuff said...
