A reporter returns to his Florida hometown to investigate a case involving a death row inmate.
A directionless young man (Zac Efron) helps his reporter brother (Matthew McConaughey) investigate the possible wrongful conviction of a man (John Cusack) on death row, and in the process, falls for the woman (Nicole Kidman) whom the convict has been romancing through prison correspondence. From the overrated director of the movie “Precious.”
Sounds like a box office bomb in the making for Oscar winner Nicole Kidman, and, finally, (we hope), the nail in the coffin of Zac Efron’s acting career.
