Review of Before the Devil Knows You're Dead (2007) by Derrick C — 08 Aug 2010
The film is really simple, it only highlights a greedy. But, not Sidney Lumet if only handle a bland movie. From a simple theme spread to many complex social conflicts. Tells the story of two brothers whose company hit by bankruptcy, trying to think safe, they're both trying to save their lives by robbing a jewelry store owned by their parents.
Here Lumet successfully tells the various problems of life that is very strong. Bringing the problems that they never previously imagined. Fantastic duet depressive performances from Philip Seymour Hofmann and Ethan Hawke.
Brilliant film!
