Casting


This film has one of the worst casting I've seen. David schwimmer as a bad man, Winona Ryder as a loving mother?? Are you joking.

Also, I feel like the daughters should have been younger. There's something off about their mannerisms, they were so childish it was so annoying.

Redemption comes from Michael Shannon. He saves the film. He makes it easier to watch but I still wouldn't recommend this film.

I was disappointed with this movie for a lot of reasons and casting definitely made the list...

-Scenes with David Schwimmer? All I could see was 'Ross'.

-Winona Ryder could most definitely have been cast better...

-James Franco was in the movie for less than 5 minutes total yet took 3rd billing on the DVD...Is he really that big a deal??

I don't think the movie came close to the way Kuklinski was in real life...the way he killed people varied, often making them suffer yet in the movie, he mostly shot them.

Also, it was stated in the news clip that he got the name, 'iceman', because of his cold demeanor but actually it was because he froze many of his victims after killing them so the time of death couldn't be determined.

Wasted my money on this one...

Here's to those who wish me well...

Michael Shannon was wonderful. First thing I've really ever seen him in, but I liked him.
