In a time where nearly every movie released is a special effects action fest with cardboard characters and cheesy dialogue, it truly is a breath of fresh air when a movie comes along that portrays life as it really is. This film takes a story that could easily have turned into the cliché gangster flick and turns it inside out, with a more grounded and relatable approach.

The story is fascinating, the dialogue rich, and the acting is spectacular. Oscar Isaac hits it out of the park in this film and the supporting cast is just as good. The pacing and camera work fits perfectly with the story being told. I have nothing bad to say about this film, other than the fact I want more of it.
