Marco L @decatur555 3h A harsh, unsettling thriller that never tries to make things easy. Jeremy Saulnier returns to familiar territory, where violence is raw, sudden, and stripped of any heroic framing. The film unfolds with an almost hypnotic rhythm, deliberately disorienting, refusing to offer clear answers or conventional comfort. There is a machine-gun shootout that stands out as one of the film’s most unforgettable moments — brutal, cold, and deeply uncomfortable, not because it’s spectacular, but because of how matter-of-fact it feels. Visually, the frozen landscapes and oppressive silence turn the environment into an active threat rather than mere scenery. Not as tight or direct as Green Room, and occasionally too hermetic for its own good, but still an intense, disturbing experience that leaves a mark. A film that doesn’t aim to please everyone — and is stronger for it. See more Kyle B. @fivecharacterslong Jan 20 Wright is impeccable in anything. Only reason to watch, yet you see he may not be happy with direction as his character is unable to fully develop. A proper Coen take would have been aces.

Acting was not entirely terrible but don’t waste your time. See more Deb S @Tomatopie Jan 14 Sssslooooooooow. Stupid dialogue that is supposed to be meaningful and falls so short of that its embarrassing. See more Hermine G @Hermine Jan 8 The worst movie I've ever watched.
