American Son Skepticism toward a serious drama starring Nick Cannon as a marine about to be deployed to Iraq is understandable, but American Son is a raw, honest gem, and the charismatic Cannon shows a remarkable talent for drama. With only a 96-hour Thanksgiving weekend leave before he heads to Iraq, Cannon sentimentally tries to experience life with his friends and family in desolate central California. No politics here: The point is simply that he’s somebody’s son, brother, and friend—and he’s going to war. By Eric D. Snider
