Reminiscent of Jack Lemmon in Missing, Jones is a patriotic father and solid citizen roused to action as he seeks the truth about the disappearance and murder of his soldier son.

Charlize Theron co-stars in a movie in which the obvious storytelling and heavy-handed politics are eclipsed by Jones’s haunting performance.
