Decent attention span...

but sometimes it's just time and day specific (meaning I could have potentially watched it another time or day and not been so drawn in/sat straight through it).
That's interesting about the counting of the land scene. That was strangest scene to me and the most out of character for Jett and the movie in general... although when he climbed up the little tower and sat down that felt more natural... to me at least.
Note... it's a subtle thing about that pacing seeming strange. It's not that Jett acting a little goofy and is what's strange... I mean he's pretty excited about his windfall... I just thought Dean took it that little bit too far... again, subtle, but over the line, for me; and the place where I most noticed him "Acting"..
