Bill Paxton has a lot of great movies out there that most people haven't seen and this is a good thing if you have a lot of time on your hands. Unfortunately, Bill died recently and people are starting to talk about the movies he was in that are not Twister.

Hank Mitchell (Paxton) discovers a crashed airplane in Minnesota that contains four million dollars one day in his relatively mundane life. Rather than turn the cash is he decides to pretend as though it was never found and thus begins a horrible tragedy that eventually devours what was previously his happy (albeit boring) life.

There are various ideas presented by Hank's family members that he lets in on the secret about how the influx of cash should be handled but just like any secret, word travels. This results in introducing multiple other people into the equation that shouldn't be involved in this very secretive problem to begin with.

While Paxton is great in this film, the real star of the entire ordeal is Billy Bob Thornton, who plays the brother of Paxton named "Jacob," who is a good guy but lacks any sort of real social skills. Kind at heart, yet quite simple; Jacob is such a heart-touching character and I feel that Billy Bob truly deserved his Oscar nomination for the portrayal.

I don't want to spoil the film but the reason that you should definitely see this film is because it is relatable. If any of us found ourselves in this same situation there is a really good chance that good people (and I like to believe I am that) could change in the face of immense wealth all of a sudden literally dropping in front of us.

If you have any sort of attachment to the Midwest in USA you may have an extra chance to be able to relate to the characters in this movie. I am from that part of the states and I can say without question, that the actors involved did a very good job displaying what life is like in what is generally regarded as a less-than-glamorous part of the States.

watch this movie; you will not regret it
