Masterpiece from Malick! Bad boy and not so bad girl go on crime-spree road trip.

Simple and complex at the same time. It follows a young couple in the southwest on the run from the law after making a huge mistake.

Beautifully shot, well written deep characters, and a bleak and sad story told with deft direction from Malick

Bored people do murder. Feels like David Lynch lite. Surreal without losing touch with reality.

Sheen plays best ever psychopath on murder spree; based on real killer C Starkwether, eventually executed. Spacey is clueless girlfriend.

Martin Sheen is an absolute psychopath. There is no other way to explain how he nailed a performance like this. It’s unexplainable.
