Cube is excellent as the doughy, rumpled ex-somebody who finds new life in helping to save somebody else's.

Hopelessly clichéd.

It's all terribly trite, but Durst does make an effort to keep his film grounded in the reality of a lot of once thriving towns like the fictional Minden.

Its characters are likable enough to settle in with for a pleasant hour and a half.

It also has another watchable turn from Ice Cube, and, as with his previous films, the rap artist-actor leads by example.
