Saw this one last night and I really liked it a lot. I don't know what the running time was, but it actually felt too short to me. I felt like the emotional impact of the relationship between Randy and his daughter could've been punched up a lot with a little more development. Same with the stripper/Randy relationship.
That said -- Rourke was amazing and his performance definitely deserved the nomination. The cinematography was really good, too -- the gritty, documentary feel was perfect.
3.5 out of 4 stars.
