Jack O'Connell is one of my favorite actors, so I was really looking forward to watching this. I can't recommend it. There are times in my life where I have enjoyed sad movies, but this one felt like pure hell the entire time I was watching it. I really wanted to turn it off ten minutes in, but I was watching with a friend, and she wanted to stick it out. The awfulness of it is still affecting me. I never write reviews, but if I can save at least one person's soul from experiencing this, I have to try.
