My main disappointment in this film was the casting of Tom Irwin as the father. He was mediocre overall and truly awful in many spots. His amateur renderings of "conveying worry by pacing back and forth" and "waking up after a long imprisonment to smell the roses" made me cringe. I wish they had switched him with Jose Zúñiga in the role of Hector and let Zúñiga get a little more exposure. He's a talented actor that we don't see a lot of, and Irwin certainly didn't deserve having one of the largest parts in the movie.
Even my 10 year old niece thought he was a little too precious in the father role.
