The doctor diagnosed Liam Neeson's character with CTE

Or that something you had to work on?
A definitive diagnosis of CTE can only be made by examining brain tissue after a persons' death. This diagnosis should have been presumptive with other options and possible treatment explored.

He is still convincingly portraying these old gangster characters with a heart
Best suited for an arthouse movie audience!The good: Liam Neeson is still starring in solid movies at his age. And this story is all about aging and nearing the end of ones life and trying to heal family bonds that were long lost.
Best suited for an arthouse movie audience which likes to watch a subtle slowburning character drama…
It isnt a riveting drama, but a quite slowburning and subtle one and for those who are interested in this genre it could be worth a watch, but dont expect fireworks!The bad: I love to see Liam Neeson in his hardhitting old man gangster roles in which he fights and shoots bad guys. But this movie has very little of that and therefore I got a bit bored with it half way through.NOT suited for the Liam Neeson action gangster fans.
