Real American beauty, that's what this is. Balancing the triple wielded swords masked in the most subtle, organic direction possible, you get to see every single side of the main character's story, including his flaws. I feel this is important in every story with a hero, and it is a great credit to the film that this attribute is tagged onto the character throughout the film. I'll admit there are some awkward scenes that dampen the immersible experience, but the story is honest, good-willed, and truly an accomplishment on its own. Watch it with a loved one as I'm sure it'll leave plenty of room for heartfelt discussion. 8.3/10.
