Review of Hell or High Water (2016) by Crow S — 28 Jan 2017
Wow, this was one of the more over-rated films I've seen in awhile.
It's nice to see a renaissance of the action movie genre, and this is certainly more entertaining than the offerings of the past decade and a half, but it is clearly directly descended from those 1980's "catchphrase" films, perhaps a hybrid that and of the Western, and nowhere near the vast majority of it's like-rated works.
I would go as far as to state this and "Sicario" as descendants of "No Country For Old Men". Decent watch, but not worth the praise it is receiving.
