Goofs
A portrait of Queen Victoria hangs on the wall outside the judge's office, the court building has "VR" on it for "Victoria Regina" (Queen Victoria), and on the judge's office wall is a picture of Queen Victoria's Jubilee celebration in Westminster Abbey. This makes sense for the small town in Ontario, Canada, where the movie was filmed, but not for the movie, which is set in small-town USA.

Earrings?! Really?

The movie itself was just fine. I like the story and it was nice to not quite know the ending beforehand. Sometimes these movies are quite predictable.

My only contention is with the son arriving in military uniform. I am a retired vet and I was severely disappointed to see a Soldier in uniform WEARING EARRINGS! I am ok with most ridiculous mistakes these movies make when it comes to military personnel in uniforms/behavior/how they talk but this is ridiculous. The worst mistake I have ever seen. The producers should have done a better job with this kind of thing.
