Patient and intriguing film. Demands your full attention and delivers great acting built around a solid script
Very intense and great acting by the whole crew! One of my all time favorites.
A very nice crime-thriller movie with outstanding performances from Philip Seymour Hoffman and Ethan Hawke.
Incredibly tense thriller, great acting, story is unique and unfolds like a Greek tragedy, highly recommended
Ethan Hawke and PSH are just * chef’s kiss *
A blackly dark thriller that descends into chaos. Excellent final film by Lumet. Amazing performances all around, Hoffman in particular.
Excellent drama thriller. Good storyline. Hawke and Hoffman are terrific in this.
Good plot. Brothers plan Rob the fathers, chaos ends. Hoffman shows why we miss him.
Just saw this for the first time recently... how did I miss this when it came out? Stellar performances, a genius storyline - loved it
Intense story with PS Hoffman and Hawke as part of a dysfunctional family. But some action was not only over the top; there was no top.
