Turgid Deerhunter - Jacknife review by AER
Long winded but thoughtful story about the fallout of when Vietnam War survivors attempt to gel back into everyday life. It's a slow and at time sensitive film that attempts to cover a lot of ground in 90s minutes and fails to engross by short changing the characters. Good performances by the three principles can't pull this film out of the swamp. Turgid.
