What I like most about this movie is how poignantly it portrays Jadin's life, struggles and death, via a very good performance by Reid Miller. For most of us, going about our everyday lives, we don't have to deal with that kind of soul crushing, emotional distress. He's worthy of our sympathy, and because of that, it makes Joe Bell's pain easier to relate to.
Mark Wahlberg does a credible job. Really liked Gary Sinise's performance.

The movie does what it needed to do most
Haters missed the message
This is a very well done movie with a great message about a real person that was trying to make a change in the world. If you watch it you'll experience some serious emotions and one of the parts is so well done you'll be blown away.
Wahlberg can act?
Yes some may be surprised ... even shocked ... even more shocked than to find out what is actually going on here. I did not know of the man of the title ... I did not know of his struggle ... his pain ... his issues ... and his walk (of shame) ... actually not exactly his shame. Or not entirely his to carry ... but you'll find out if you watch the movie.
Really rich drama that tells us what society is like ... what bullying does to people ... and how individuals have to carry that weight ... or not. It is a heavy drama and a really good one. Stop bullying I'd say ... but unfortunately it is not as easy as that.
I had no idea what the movie would be about, if you like dramas and twists along the way ... I suggest you watch it without any knowledge yourself ... it's a tough one.
