John A Massie's Review

Summary - Very Good 3.5

In terms of Post-Tarantino crime films this is pretty good but its built up a bit of hype over the years that probably should have gone to other films like The Way of The Gun. Definantly worth a look if you like this sort of thing.

Acting - OK 2.5

Didn’t really have any complaints but nothing that stuck out as noteworthy either.

Film - Great 4.0

Edge - Horrid 4.0

Its pretty violent but the only thing that offended me was Willem Dafoe’s gay bashing.

Reality - Surreal 3.0

Its grounded in reality but is sort of a metaphor for the directors beliefs. The gunfights could happen but are probably best described as OTT.

  Regarding jasonhurwitz’s Review
  “More f-bombs were dropped in this movie than in the last 8 wars combined.” Good one.
