Lake George

This movie is my first time(to my knowledge), I have watched a movie starring either Shea Whigham or Carrie Coon. The movie moves rapidly, wondering what is going to happen next??? Shea does a great job, but Carrie...knocks it 'OUT OF THE PARK'! I was immediately captivated by her screen presence and ability to create a character with so much charisma, wit, cunning and resolve. No matter the obstacle, she has the solution. She was so convincing in that role, just a masterful performance, and a joy to watch! I find it rare, to watch a movie with this degree of quality in the script and acting. All the principals in the movie, gave great performances, Kudos to all; especially, Carrie!

Been a while since I've seen Shea Whigham in the movies but then again, it doesn't feel like it's been that long. I know I have seen Carrie Coon somewhere but can't remember which movie I saw her in.

I've seen Whigham in The Wolf of Wall Street (2013). So this movie is basically about a man who gets caught up in the game and gets involved with a mobster who threatens his life.

The mobster orders him to kill a woman (played by Carrie Coon), but he is very reluctant to do so and instead becomes intent on stealing money from the guy who ordered the hit.

Both Whigham and Coon's performances are great on screen and they learn to care for each other as the movie goes on. It's not a Bonnie & Clyde type story, but it's more of a revenge/road film. Definitely recommended.

Carrie Coons does an incredible job of making her role completely believable. You are pulled along on her story, never knowing if she is telling the truth or not. Great surprise ending. Ever since the Leftovers I've followed her movies and shows and she never failed to deliver. Wingenhame (?) is also very believable in his role. Never out of character. He was the yacht pilot in the Wolf of Wall Street. A character actor who excelled in this role.

Excellent pace, you never feel that the movie is dragging.

The supporting cast is also very good.

The actors actions are always consistent with the role they are playing.

This movie is far better than its rating.

You won't be disappointed watching it.

The story unfolds at its own pace. Neither lead character is particuarly compelling, but the actors do an excellent job of making the audience care about them. We get just enough back story to be intrigued. This was not meant to be Pulp Fiction or Fight Club. As subdued stories go, this was excellent. There is enough money on the line to make this story interesting. Well-written, well-directed. I would have no idea how much of an audience a film like this can hope for, but I watched a lot of movies, always looking for something different, something to show me a story in a way I haven't seen before and this fit the bill. Well done to the cast and crew. Very glad I saw this movie!

An english language movie telling the story of a man (Shea Whigham) returning to public life for prison. He visits a well heeled gangster who orders him to perform one more job. This entails killing the gangsters old love interest.

The rest is an obvious play, Carrie Coon plays the love interest of the gangster and her trapped in the car with her would be killer goes through all the steps you can imagine. Her voice for some reason is strident, and just a little annoying. Something lacks on the audio here, it goes to the plot that she would be loud and demanding, but it does travel to the middle of ones brain!

The ending of the movie goes past it's climax and soon we cannot wait for it to be over. The great things about the movie are the pictures and photography are clear and beautiful. So many modern movies take the slow burn to hell and back, but this is very well paced. If you get a chance, do watch this one. Great plot, acting good, direction is good too. Pity about that sound....
