This is another Australian feature. Johnny (Matt Nable) and Ryan Logan (Sam Worthington) fought in Iraq together. Ryan was a sniper and killed a bunch of people. Later at home his wife is pregnant and he has a young son Billy. A car accident kills his wife although we discover later it was his choice. They both needed blood and Ryan was the only donor available and he had to choose who would live and die. He opted to keep his son alive which he was beginning to regret when he became a teen problem. Ryan bounced from job to job. Neither one was doing well in life until Johnny pops back into his life. He is a second story man who needs a partner. The film dragged on. It was rather pointless and ended at an odd spot. One that can be missed. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

The depth of this film is incredible, the amount of effort applied to each character feels almost unlimited, I couldn't imagine anyone else but Sam Worthington playing Ryan, every movement, facial expression and word was perfectly timed and on point. The depth and ambience ceated by Johnny (Matt Nable) through his actions and demeanour within the movie is factually accurate and unfortunate to know there are soldiers who have deployed and taken this same path through life, his performance in every scene builds even more depth, his final scenes resulting in actions based on his unyielding commitment and sacrifice to his long unseen friend and team mate Ryan, only to be abandoned by him in his most desperate moment, Matt Nable could literally create another parallel film based solely around Johnny and his decent, resulting in a soldiers ultimate sacrifice, resulting in Ryan and his son Billy's second chance at life.

This is a great movie.. well worth watching. Great performance by Sam an all the other actors..Lots of action and drama.. With the bad reviews that we saw we weren't expecting much but as we sat an watched it we were captivated and really got into it.. my wife and I were on the edge of our seat for the whole movie...... I really appreciated the acting especially by the young boy .. the son.. who did a great job ... I know a lot of people will take the reviews and just not watch it, but they really should because they will be very surprised to find out that it is a lot better than they are giving credit for..

This falls into the class of 'people story' and these do need to be done at a certain pace. Dad Sam having lost his wife in tragic circumstances is now attempting to raise his son while dealing with the trauma. A former Special Ops mate factors in and things get messy. This is not a fast paced action movie, and it's refreshing that it isn't as the story wouldn't work properly if it was. However, there is a lot happening and it certainly kept our interest. Relationship between Dad and son is great to watch. If you love a good people story and like relationship tales, then this is a good watch and we really enjoyed it.
