Ingenious casting.

Kevin Costner and Demi Moore? Sure, in the late ‘80s or early ‘90s... but you wouldn’t think they’d be anyone’s first choices decades later. Both did splendidly well.

Dane cook could possibly be the worst actor of all time

Dane Cook was exceptional in this film, he gave the second best performance behind Hurt. He was great

Yeah I think he played the part very well. I didn't even realize he was a comedian and actor. He played a *beep* comedian in Louie. He's also gonna play a *beep* guy in American Gods!

Kevin Costner was good, Demi Moore.. not so much

Never seen one role where Moore was good. Maybe St. Elmo's Fire.

I really liked everyone--- except Demi Moore and Dane Cook. I thought their roles were miscast.

I thought Kevin Costner and William Hurt were brilliant. Danielle Panabaker was good. Demi Moore and Dane Cook were average.

That's not the count of that user's posts but just their user name on the old IMDb forums.

They did great! And, William Hurt gives one of the all-time greatest performances, in any movie, ever.
