About the blog:

Well, hello! Thanks for stopping by to read my opinions about movies that I see. Some are older and most are new. Some I go to see in the theaters (both live performances and movies) and some I watch from the comfort of my own couch and even more, I will watch from the amazing Netflix app. Of course, these will be my personal thoughts about the targeted item, however, it will give you an idea of whether it's a colossal waste of time or worth a shot!

MY REVIEW:
This was a movie that was recommended to me and I gave it a shot.  It was actually pretty good. Decent.

So, the premise is that Gavin, played by Charlie Hunnam has an affair with a neighbors wife Shana, played by Liv Tyler. Shana is married to Joe, played by Patrick Wilson. Joe is a Christian and Gavin is an atheist. This plays a significant part in the movie. Basically, Joe finds out and forces Gavin on a ledge of a building and gives him an hour to choose between the one he loves or himself. Without faith or an afterlife to effect the decision, the movie draws on this christianity versus atheism.

I am an atheist so this film took on a fairly normal conversation that I have on a consistent basis. What makes you do good things?

The movie is good and will keep you guessing until the very end.
