I'd forgotten this movie even came out and I was looking forward to it because of Kevin Costner. I somewhat feel bad for him, he went from being a great actor in great movies to mediocre movies.

I would love to see this in the mix for the Best Actress and Editing Oscars; ideally, also for Picture, Director, and Adapted Screenplay.

It was mostly everything you say but I thought the ending felt cut short and a bit anti-climactic all things considered. As if they cut 15 minutes of tension and plot.

I watched this last night on digital and loved it, even the slower parts.

My favorite of 2020.

This movie felt so real and Costner's performance still shows he has what it takes. Plus, Diane Lane was great although I don't remember seeing her in any other movies or such.

It's GREAT isn't it. I agree brilliant performances too.

Diane Lane has been in LOADS... you've definitely seen her in stuff - even if you can't remember her.

Seeing young photos of her definitely reminds me I've seen her before. You know, even in her 60's or whatever she still looks beautiful.

Furthermore, this is a movie worth watching again and even though it didn't show "Based on a true story," there are plenty of cases like this in real life.

[Show spoiler]Costner's character went in knowing he'd die, but at the same time save other lives.

She's 55 (56 later this month)...

The Outsiders, Streets Of Fire, Judge Dredd, Murder At 1600, Perfect Storm, Unfaithful (for which she won an Oscar), Under The Tuscan Sun (for which she was Golden Globe nominated), Must Love Dogs, Secretariat, and the recent Superman films (Man of Steel, Batman vs Superman, Justice League) are her most 'recognisable' films. On TV she was in Lonesome Dove and House of Cards. Impressive filmography if you ask me.

I agree re the great movie and it's re-watchability and Costner's character.

I like how the poster spoils that. I haven't seen the movie, but i figured that would happen because of the poster.

A mildly engaging drama/thriller. I found Lane's character exasperating, to be honest.

That's interesting. I've not read or seen that before, but each to their own.

I don't see how he found her irritating, but each to their own.

I agree buddy.
I thought it was a GREAT portrayal and I preferred it to pretty much all other Best Actress candidates that I've seen so far.
