It would be easy to dismiss this as a summer-boys-movie, but the the additional complications of love story and bounty hunters make this a great drama. Matthew McConaughey is exceptional here, as the mysterious man on the island. The boys' discovery of him and their adventures with and for him, while they search for love and life, are enthralling and enjoyable. The atmosphere of the location - one of those expansive yet closed in areas along the Mississippi - combines with the various threads of the story to make a film that succeeds on many levels.
