Nice try.
Was excited to see something new from John Travolta and then was surprised to see that this was a Fred Durst film. The film plays out in a mixed bag of missed opportunity. You're unsure throughout the film who the director is wanting you to root for or what the message he is trying to relay. The plot, a familiar trope, has a few holes that are too glaring to ignore, as does the attempted neat little bow ending that fails on several levels. Did love several easter eggs splashed through the movie, though. Overall, it is another case of a great actor caught in a movie that falls short and could have been so much more.

I presume that most people have all but forgotten the crazy story of Richard Jewell and the events surrounding the 1996 Atlanta Olympics bomb. This retelling is done very well with a cast that fires on all cylinders.
There are some times that the moving gets a bit slow, but it almost has to in order to tell the story it's conveying.
Sam Rockwell deserves far more credit that he received for his role, and Kathy Bates might have been shunned for a supporting actress award, as well as Jon Hamm for supporting actor.
If you have any interest in history or events from American (or world) history, this movie is definitely worth the time.
