Thrilling, with a human element at the same time

I really enjoyed this - novel, suspenseful, and with a strong human story. I also liked the way it pitted two completely different versions of what's important against each other - on one side: a high-flying career, money, and keeping up less-than-squeaky-clean appearances; and on the other: keeping a family together. But ultimately, the two men tell the same story; and the film's title takes on a secondary meaning.
Just before watching this, it was coincidental that I was thinking that if more people behaved according to their own moral compass - and in a way that would allow them to sleep at night; rather than dispensing with their morals to sink to someone else's standards, in order to exact revenge on that someone else - then the world would be a better place. This film illustrates that very well.
As an aside, I don't understand how Toni Collette is such a big name. I'd never seen her in a film before yesterday, and in the last two days I've seen her in two films. I find her irritating; woefully icky to look at; and a really poor, tedious, uninspired, lumbering actress.

This is a fantastically tense movie with two great performances. These two actors don't always choose the best scripts (Affleck - Pearl Habour and SLJ - snakes on a plane) but they couldn't miss with this one.
