Review of By the Gun (2014) by John935 — 23 May 2015
I rented this mainly for Keitel who has about 10 minutes' screen time but the movie held my attention. Not in the top tier of Boston mob pictures but the mostly young cast is interesting. Strangely, none of them have what I'd call a Boston accent.
Aside from a couple of waterfront locations it could have been filmed in any city. Ben Barnes' character is supposed to be a rookie but unfortunately he seems like an actor acting like a rookie. He's goodlooking but doesn't engage the camera.
Bottom line: If I was bored or hated this I would have hit fast-forward. I did not.
