I've not seen too many movies starring Casey Affleck as a leading actor, but in this one he probably performs much better than in the other movies I've seen ( Gone Baby Gone, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford Robert Ford , Light of My Life, Gerry ). Empowering drama seems to be the words for this movie. The only downside I can think of is the runtime, I would've liked to see more. (seemed like it ran just for an hour .... that fast it felt).
