Kevin Bacon plays a man just recently released from prison for child molestation.  The film turns out some pretty good performances from Kevin Bacon, Kyra Sedgwick, Mos Def, Benjamin Bratt, and David Allen Grier.  It's difficult to watch at times as you are often repulsed by some of Bacon's actions, but worth the rental fee( especially if you have netflix )

I'll add it to my queue.  It's been too long since Bacon did some top notch work.

I've been eyeing this on the shelves for some time now - I'll pick this one up too.  (Probably won't watch this and The Machinist in the same night though...)

I think they did a good job of showing that wasn't the case.  The scene with his sister goes a long way to proving that, in my opinion.

Dont get me wrong, i did like the whole personable feel to the whole thing.  The interaction with all the characters was well written.  I just didnt care for the beat up the other molester thing.  ( granted, he couldnt report it to the police.  he would have probably gotten even worse treatment by the cops.

Over all, minues that little part the movie was very good.

This movie made me very uncomfortable.  Which in this case, is actually a good thing.
