About this movie

Academy Award® winner Nicolas Cage stars as Joe, a hard-living ex-con who is the unlikeliest of role models. But when he meets a troubled 15-year-old homeless boy (Tye Sheridan) desperately in need of help, Joe is faced with the heartbreaking choice of redemption or ruin.

As the eponymous ex-con, Nicolas Cage gets grizzly in this Southern-set film by David Gordon Green. Tye Sheridan, who was wonderful in Jeff Nichols' 2012 "Mud," co-stars as a teen whose troubled home life stirs something in Joe that changes both of their lives. Fans of old Nicolas Cage, back before he was a larger-than-life personality, will be happy to see him dig into this dark, violent drama.

I have no idea what I just watched or what its even about. It was that bad. The only reason I watched it until the end is because I paid 7 bucks to take a chance on this. Wish I had made another choice.

Tye Sheridan (where did he from) has done it again, great performance along with Nicolas Cage that shows a small ugly side of reality in the US.
