only considers the quality of Penn's performance.
When Ben Del Toro is also considered...
Naomi does a credible job, too, so far superior to Robbins' wife or the inexplicably cold LL (Sean's wife) (Robbins and Bacon I found much better than Penn's over the top effort).
I found the sense of dread in "21" was one of the most intense feelings I've ever felt in film, and it was sustained for a long period (the revenge piece felt added on and detracted).
That being said, the scene in which Penn races to the park and finally realizes its his daughter and begins to scream, "Is that my daughter in there?" is one of the most compelling in film history.
One last point: the two brothers in Mystic were terrible actors!
