Walk Like a Panther review
Stephen Graham and Dave Johns clearly put an immense amount of time and effort into perfecting their father/son relationship, with some incredibly touching scenes midway through the second act. This does of course come unsurprisingly, since the two men have vast previous history working on big budget pictures and series that have been nominated for major awards. But it does appear that a large amount of the film's weight is carried by the two actors.
