Decent movie with an A list cast.

Rating: 5/10 (11 October 2018)

The players are spot on. Bardem is strong, charismatic and bold, Lawrence is accommodating, sweet and innocent. Harris is genuine and convincing and Pfieffer is mysterious and dangerous. Traits that become relevant as the movie's plot becomes clear. HOWEVER...it is not some life changing, nirvana grabbing piece of newly discovered art that everyone raves about. It's a solid movie with a very original way of telling a very old story with a dynamite cast to do it. If you're the type of viewer it takes a while to get the gist of a movie you may wanna study up on this one a bit...but not too much.
