I had no intention of liking Ray Liotta's character in the beginning but he became so likeable despite his past. and when he went to bring the candy for the guy he shot in the head.. that was so sweet lol .. he really got me in the end, when he said it wasnt the pills it was you doc, who changed me (sumtin to that effect).. i was soo glad coz im totally obsessed with the whole thing about child abuse bringing on criminal behaviour and that maybe people can help by shining a little light in the darkness and i was so happy that thats what happened.. for what 2 seconds, till theyyy shot him.. i was so pissed. when willem dafoe's character screamed nooo when they killed him, my heart was screamin with him. i kno that he died with better memories and all and that maybe its best he died but cheeez.. i din want him to.
i may be taking this a little seriously but for me he kinda represented all abused children and when he found the light and then just died like that.. it kinda crushed my hopes. lol. how many hurt kids really survive what theyve been thru.. like Dave Pelzer.. he is an inspiration...im being insane i know, i tend to take movies a little too seriously... and im obsessed with chiild abuse and apply it everywhere .woooh.. ill get over it. just bored and thot id express myself

him getting away would have been a good ending, but not real, he is a convicted killer, he did kill people, he got what he deserved but not at the right time, if he hadnt died he might have gone back to the life before

what this really says is society screws you and then if u get better it just kills you for being good!

If you liked the story of "Control" you'd REALLY like this book called "Blood of Heaven" by Bill Myers. In fact, I was really excited when I read about "Control," because I thought it was "Blood of Heaven" in movie form. It's almost the same plotline - they even fake an execution - but this book goes more in depth and has some really freaky spins on things. You should definitely check it out.
