Intense, brutal and all around good fun

A movies review is first and foremost a type of recommendation or a lack thereof, i.e. whether or not a movies is worth your while. Well, this movie sure was worth mine, but all the while I wouldn't recommend it to everyone and maybe not even most people.
If you're not lighthearted and you appreciate the proper use of (graphic) hard hitting violence in a movie, if you like it when a movie grabs you by the gut and won't let go, and if constant edge-of-the-seat feeling is something you seek in your viewing experience, then this movie is definitely for you.
Well made, solid acting all around and (much like Saulnier's previous work, Blue Ruin) truly realistic this movie really is a must see in my book.
