    A botched effort. Not necessarily bad, but hardly compelling either.

    You can see how this movie could have been jacked up into a one-level action picture, but what makes it special is how Thornton modulates the material.
  3. Thornton, directing his first film since the minimalist "Sling Blade" (1996), has a much better grip on the material when he's focused on the scruffy desert landscape and the adventures of the two Texans.
