It has been a long time since I wrote a review but this movie deserves my time and attention. I definitely did not expect this movie to touch me in the way that it did.
The Pros:- -It is so well edited that I had to recheck the run time of the movie when it ended. Two hours flew past like the wind.
-The acting is great.
-The plot will reel you in and never let go. This is simple story telling at it's best.
-The dialogue will never feel boring and the prison scenes are shot in a way that will leave you in awe.
-The score is one of the best I've heard in recent memory. Reminds me of Sicario, another great film. Some people said it could have been better but I disagree. The score had me wishing I can write music that good for movies. It had a certain twist to it, sounds of flutes or sounds of Arabian music undertones.
- The directing? All hail Ric Roman Waugh. I'm going to search for some of his other movies. If half are as half as good as half of this film, I might pass out with glee.
The Cons: There are non I can think of. I wrote this review a few days after seeing the film so that I can write a honest review absent attachment to the film.
Go see it.
