i swear i never imagined liking Justin Timberlake! but hell, he definitely won my heart in this movie! i never really liked him at all, but now i have fallen for him! anyway, if you haven't been brainwashed or had all of your brain cells deadened by Hollywood's obsession with over the top special effects, sex, violence and vulgar language, then you'll enjoy relaxing with this heart-warming film. It's character and story driven rather than intense action and flashy camera work. Nothing too spectacular or original about it. The acting was good as you can never go wrong with jeff bridges and JT kept up with it and had a few funny spots in it but it's definitely worth watching. i highly recommend it! 9/10
