4 stars (Very Good) Nuanced film about living on the Arkansas R. Terrific acting. Good script. Subplots: loyalty of the boys to each other, strangers, parents & between men & women generally. Trust is a limited commodity here. This is no B-grade movie, very fine. ~Sandy

2 stars (Good Try) It is long and too long for me for a screenplay driven by two boy characters but the shooting locations help to add interest. Matthew hard to spell McC is okay in this one. ~Tubbs
