Excellent Acting, Ending Badly Done
9 October 2023
Warning: Spoilers
First of all, the ending couldn't have been more telegraphed. And I was on board to a point but needed to be shown why. Instead of a lecture on mental illness and the need to give someone support if/when they are having a crisis not turn on them and make them feel even more isolated...Instead we got a self serving sanctimonious soliloquy another how dare you young ungrateful whipper snappers question the moral superiority of a boomer.

That said the acting of this movie and the writing (until the last scene) were flawless. Ok the acting of the prosecutor was one note, over bearing and bad and the red headed sailor was not believable but other than that.

A lot of the scripting to be fair seemed inspired, to a degree, by A Few Good Men. The last moments of the film are as cliche as a drink in the face unfortunately.
