I didn't have the foggiest clue what this was about when I Plexed it on my Roku. I was quickly pulled in by the excellent performances throughout the film.
This is McConaughey's best performance of his career, in my estimation. You can not believe how sick he looks and solidly believable this was. It was hard to look at him in that condition - and the preparation for this movie must have been massive.
By now you know this is about the explosion of HIV and AIDS cases and the struggles of people trying to survive it against all odds and greedy Big Pharma.
The real jewel here is McConaughey's completely believable performances delivered with razor-like execution.
This one is a keeper and I guess I never knew what a great actor this guy is. Now I know.
Honestly, between this and Philadelphia - this wins by a long shot. It is gritty and rough around the edges and all-in-all great entertainment.
