See it. Okay, before the straight dope on this, I have to get something funny off the chest. Right before this film I saw "Barry Munday" (2010) and in it was a supporting actor named Shea Whigham. Hadn't seen the dude in much of anything and then pow, here is here but in a totally different (but again) supporting role...the dude has chops. Speaking of acting chops, Michael Shannon ROCKS! He is a dude who, just because of his expression, looks, and size you hope isn't going psycho because, well, it would be bad.
Okay, only Curtis (Michael Shannon) can see and here things that are just outta place; he also has some majorly spooky dreams as well and a mother who has been committed for being a psycho. "Curtis, the cards are stacked against you!" This is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time and for me (who watches a ton of movies, that is about a month) it is close to being one to watch a second time. It was that good. The acting led by Shannon is awesome and so are the supporting roles as well. The directing was great, the writing awesome, the cinematography great, and what you don't get often is a killer soundtrack. The music was an element that just really pushed this thing way up there! SEE THIS ONE!
