This was not good
This movie was not a good one at all. The story line was bland and the only redeeming quality was Brad Pitt's acting.

Good movie, good lesson.
It's actually really good! This is not the kind of movie I would normally watch, but it was well done. It's not perfect, but it was a good story of two brothers. It teaches us that if you take things more seriously like Norman and care about education, you'll be successful, and if you do stupid things and make bad decisions, your life will go downhill. Other people gave it bad reviews because it requires you to use your brain! You have to think during this movie to understand what's going on.

Great movie without judgement about highly complex issue
This is a great movie to watch as a family, double so if you have a child/family member who is different from everybody else, or considered a trouble maker. This movie about very painful situation when you have a child who is not like you, or wouldn't fit. What should you do? I like this movie because it is just telling the story without judgement. It opens the door for discussion within families.
