Slow and grim and far to long

a very slow drama movie that had me bored most of the way through it., its a very long movie with a very simple story about a kid and his alchoholic father in texas, with nicolas cage playing the a guy who befriends the kid and gives him work .but has he's own troubles.
its all very slow and grim ,it reminds me out of the furnace and mud.yet without their grit .The music on this movie is really depressing as well, the whole tone is just grim. The acting is fine and cage is doing a proper acting role for once but i wish he would of picked something better.
There is a slight play off ending for watching it all but its not one i cared about too much, overall the story felt like it could of been said in 10 minutes but instead was dragged out over 2 hours plus.
