In a Nutshell:A happily married, playful Indiana couple(Mortensen and Bello) with children, are apparently victimized when Tom's diner is robbed.Incredible pacing and character development, that pulls us in and makes the action scenes that much more powerful. Brilliant direction, casting and solid lead and supporting(Harris, William Hurt)performances.Shot without stylish camera work and special effects, or overly choreographed action scenes.
