Viewing Notes

About as great as everyone has said. The subject matter makes it compelling but it’s really Ruffalo and Keaton in the drivers seat. They are on the next level in so much that these two steal scenes they aren’t in simply because you miss them being on screen. Definitely got emotional towards the end with how incredibly sad this is knowing it really happened.

Pretty that’s Richard Jenkins in the voice acting on the phone. Hard to mistake him.
