I watched this movie because I saw that cast (Nicholas, Rourke, Phillips, Astin, Keegan) and figured I would enjoy it. It ended up being even better than I thought it would be.
Beyond the cast, I enjoyed the relationship between Ethan and Mia, Ethan and Chloe. I really liked the drama. I enjoyed the relationship between Ethan and Kaden, and the surprising vulnerability shown. I thought the movie flowed pretty well also. Nicholas as the lead was fantastic. Again, surprised me how well he played the role, and made it look easy, natural. Rourke was fantastic.
But at the end, I wanted more. I wondered if it could be a series or even a TV action/drama (minus the swearing, depending on the network). I would LOVE to have better understood Ethan's background, his relationships previously (with mother, sister, wife). I'd love to know more about Kaden's background. I want to see what the future holds for Ethan and others. I think it'd be interesting to see the after effects of the movie's climatic events, police investigations, drama. I think there is a lot yet to unpack.
