Stop-Loss

Ryan Phillippe fanger alle tonerne i den forvirrede soldats sind...

Ryan Phillippe takes the lead role of Brandon, a young soldier who has done his duty and is looking forward to resuming his life in Texas.

...is a human story first and foremost, and Peirce and her stellar young cast ensure that the message never gets in the way of the storytelling.

Phillippe does a dark, searing turn with a character that could have easily been little more than Taps-era hubris, and Gordon-Levitt, as one of King's more fragmented former charges, is riveting and convincingly small-town Texas.
