Keane (Damian Lewis) is a mentally unbalanced man who roams the Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York City, looking for his daughter, who was supposedly kidnapped a year earlier. When he's not at the bus station he holes up in a dingy hotel, numbing himself with drugs and alcohol. But when Lynn (Amy Ryan), a young single mother, and her daughter, Kira (Abigail Breslin), check into the hotel, Keane reaches out to help them, and he ends up helping himself at the same time.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

The scrutinizing camera angles of Keane might at first feel too close for comfort, but this powerful portrait of a man distraught by the abduction of his child plumbs the depths of mental illness and the corners of fleabag hotels in an intimate and touching examination of the seedier side of life.

Nigel Andrews Financial Times It is like bad Bresson, if that were a possibility. All signifiers and no meaning; all tics and no truths; all mute emoting and no emotion. Rated: 2/5 May 15, 2015 Full Review Empire Magazine Rated: 3/5 Sep 22, 2006 Full Review Geoff Pevere Toronto Star Unshakably harrowing but deeply moving. Rated: 3.5/4 Jun 16, 2006 Full Review Lael Loewenstein FilmWeek (LAist) It is excruciatingly tense and so well-acted... An extraordinary film. Aug 26, 2022 Full Review Chelsea Bain Boston Herald Rated: 3/4 Oct 21, 2006 Full Review Ken Eisner Georgia Straight One's compassion is both challenged and expanded by a rare movie that really does go its own way.

Audience Member Interesting piece but it was work to get through. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Really unsettling viewing and you're never quite sure where the boundary lies between a conscientious good man and a schizophrenic liability. Throwing a stranger's kid into the mix is all a little bit too much for comfort. An interesting portrait of a man's life unravelling in any case. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member The film isn't all that great. But Damian Lewis proves again why he continues to be one of the most underrated actors working today. It's his tour de force performance that really carries this film to the finish line. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member The film isn't all that great.
