'Joe' contains all flawed characters, supremely acted by the whole cast, that paint a closer representation of the backwoods life. There seems to be a dead end at every turn, but that little glimmer of hope keeps some going. Those with good intentions, that is. The 'bad' characters do some truly terrible things. But I guess they have to since our main ones make their own bad choices. Their troubled pasts make it harder for them, understandably so. The overall story is just okay. It shows it's wear with a slightly overlong predictable ending. The rest leading up is solid and much worth the drama.
