I can't really argue with this reviewer's take on the film, but as someone who knows the author, I can tell you that the packed house for the Houston premier applauded at the end.
It's a true story and produced by someone who never made a movie before. The former gave it credibly and the latter I think most we agree shows when compared to big budget Hollywood films. But even though I knew the story, it held my attention for it's duration. And I think Chris Evans is awesome in this film and lends power and authenticity to the character he plays that would make this film suck if it was missing.
I think if others see this film and are not so distracted by less important details or possible flaws like "Chris Evans’ muscles" they will enjoy the film get something from it as I did.
Did I mention that it's based on a true story?
