Blood for Dust

This film is a great example of excellent craftsmanship. The Director of Photography, Production Designer, Composer, Director combine their skills very effectively. Scoot McNairy is an excellent actor who delivers the role of cliff with Nuance and Care. Kit Harrington surprises with playing against type. Other cast members do a splendid job with complimenting each other effectively. Montana shines as a gorgeous location and character. Some of the landscape photography is spectacular. Some of the violence is depicted quite stylishly and occasionally with a pleasant surprise. As an indie film, Blood for Dust really stands out to show how so much can be accomplished with so little. The ending was very unexpected and quite well done .

If you're a fan gritty and dark, you'll love BFD. I love films where characters are driven to desperation and painted into corners, and that's exactly where Cliff finds himself as he steps into a life of crime that has depths of deception he is ill prepared for.

Montana was shot beautifully and was the perfect backdrop for this cold crime thriller. Getting transported back in time was a nice touch too.

Scoot McNairy is incredible as a downtrodden and desperate salesman. He is an actor who I think doesn't get the recognition he deserves, and was perfectly cast and he crushed the role. I enjoyed seeing Josh Lucas in a role that surprised me too, and he showed up great! Ethan Suplee was a nice touch as a large stoic henchman. And while some reviews seem critical of Kit Harrington I really enjoyed him in this as Ricky.

So yeah, if you like the gritty and dark crime thrillers, this is for you. It will even scratch your action itch too. BFD a must watch!

While looking to see what new releases came out today, I noticed Blood for Dust, and saw the cast and went in blind. What a pleasant surprise. There is great acting throughout especially by the co leads. Scoot McNairy, who is one of the top character actors in the business, thoughtfully carries this movie on his shoulders as a desperate man who can't shake the past and gets mixed up in some nefarious doings. While Kit Harrington is also phenomenal in an against type role as the loose cannon Ricky. They have good chemistry as old acquaintances maybe even friends. The action is well done, and there is some pretty brutal kills. The climax is extremely intense and had me on the edge of my seat. This is a must watch, especially if you like the movie Fargo. There is also amazing character actors sprinkled throughout in cameos. Josh Lucas chews scenery with ease and makes you wonder how we don't see more of him.

It's the early 90's in the midwest. Cliff (Scoot McNairy) is a struggling traveling salesman. His previous workplace seems to have been shady and history is closing in on him. When it surfaces, he gets fired. He turns to Ricky (Kit Harington), a criminal from his past.

This is a murky crime noir drama. The murky confusion can throw off some viewers, but it is very fitting of the crime noir genre. I love the idea that a salesman and a conman are two sides of the same coin. I don't really understand Ricky's plan and that does detract from my enjoyment. Ultimately, I really like the murky atmosphere.

It was ok, a couple of well know faces a average script and a mediocre director it's everything you need to make a movie this age, nothing interesting nothing new it's just the same basics idea combined of every crime movie of the last 10 years. I can make something better than this after watching a lot of crimes movies i know i can,

Kit Harrington outside of Game Of Thrones its bad, his career its just bad, I feel bad for the guy first he lost the love of his life, the queen of dragons and now his career its just mediocre and forgettable such a shame, so sad that makes me feel, i wanna cry tbh.
