Hard to figure out why it was not so much better
Anything with Sela Ward gets a 10, and then you work backwards.Nick Nolte has become a caricature of himself and the days of "Affliction" are long, long gone.
Think of Bill Maher writing a series of acts of contrition for George W. Bush, spend no time editing them or inserting irony and wit, and you have "Graves".
The stereotypical characters, including the cameos of "real life" politicians, make you embarrassed to watch, and if you are looking for some nexus or meaningful connection to the current election campaign, do not hold your breathe.
Hard to figure out why it was not so much better. A group of professionals phoned it in.
