Great crime movie! Nice grim atmosphere, nice time frame, great screenplay by Nick Cave I saw, and he must have made the great music too. Excessive violence, and not too little, enough tension and more than fine roles from Hardy, Clarke and especially Labeouf, who is going a bit heavier here. But of course Pearce steals the show as a vain, sadistic slightly neurotic deputy sheriff. What a creep, those kinds of roles are familiar to him. And then of course Chastain is always nice to see.

More than a great movie, and more than great entertainment.

A nice film that relies mainly on imaging and setting the atmosphere. It is more than fine, beautiful time frame and beautiful images. The course and content of the story is a bit cliché and there is certainly enough predictability. Suddenly it becomes a rise and fall. The Rakes character, although wonderfully filled in by Pearce, is just a bit too over the top for the whole. End is unfortunate. But all in all a good snack.
