I've finally seen this film, which I've wanted to for ages - for Eastwood and Jolie but, also, for JMS. I was really impressed how strong Christine was in the film and how, while she is so often repressed by men she is also helped by them, she also learns to stick up for herself. And she learns that from Amy Ryan's character, who was incredible as always.

I'm surprised you didn't mention the line "Never start a fight, but always finish it" - which Christine tells her son at the beginning, since it is the backbone of the film AND something that Sheridan's father always told him in Babylon 5. It was nice to hear the line in a completely different context, even if I was momentarily distracted by the meta of it all.
