Trivia:
The film's translation in Russia is "Fraud" moreGoofs:
Factual errors: The film takes place in Kansas, yet the hockey game Chris listens to at the bank is a Detroit Red Wings game against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The radio play-by-play is being announced by Ken Kal, who is the Detroit Red Wings' local radio voice. Chris should not have been able to listen to a local Detroit radio broadcast hundreds of miles away in Kansas. moreQuotes:
[first lines]Chris Pratt: It only happens once a year, and then they die. It's like a mating ritual or something.
Kelly: Isn't that romantic?

This is incredibly entertaining and solid piece of film making, by Scott Frank. The film travels on a road that its laid out for the audience to see steps ahead, but that never matters, b/c you are constantly in suspense over what will happen to the incredibly well drawn characters in the film. Frank also shows tons of directorial flair to accompany his writing prowess. The whole cast was amazing, Matthew Goode is completely unrecognizable and is perfect in the film. Jeff Daniels again dons a Beard and steals his scenes, every line of his dialog either makes you laugh, think or just compels the movie forward, and Joseph Gordon Levitt again proves why he is capable of being one of the next great movie stars. Go see this movie and tell your friends to do the same.
This is the kind of film Hollywood should be making,
