Great acting makes you forget the film's flaws

Rating: 8/10 (28 March 2019)

It is no wonder that Bale got an Oscar for his part as Dick Enlund. His adaptability and dedication to a role is unbelievable. He is easily the best part of this film. Mark Wahlberg Also fits great in to his role as the younger brother Micky. And the mother isn't bad either.
Otherwise the movie is mediocre. Nice twists and turns trough most of the film, but the ending falls flat. Until then the movie is a back and forth battle of doing the right thing and falling back to old habits. Ending is just being happy ever after and all being a big happy family all of a sudden. Nice movie to watch, but nothing special.
