    The film is effective in its intimate moments as well as its violent set pieces, and it could attract audiences, primarily because of Spacek's superb performance.
  2. Garity, son of Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden, gives the kind of performance rarely seen in today's movies.

    Added to the general torpidity and twangy tropes of this Southern family drama is the discomfort of watching a natural actor (Garity) force it.

    The only thing saving Lake City from total ridiculousness is Spacek.

    It took two directors to make this movie so boring?! Painfully slow moving, it lacks focus and and excitement. Even Sissy Spacek can't save this one. Collapse
