A thriller that follows two siblings who decide to fend for themselves in the wake of a botched casino heist, and their unlikely reunion during another family's Thanksgiving celebration.
A contrived wannabe Freudian noir.
Olivia Wilde and Eric Bana fail to convince in a contrived and strenuously acted crime thriller.
Where The Counterfeiters was full of street-wise wit and bayonet-sharp characterisation, Ruzowitzky's latest is a thriller with an altogether emptier head. That said, the wintery noir setting and gifted cast offer substantial saving graces.
Falls apart.
The snowbound setting might be the chilliest since Fargo, but the resemblance ends there.
A strong cast lends some weight to a workmanlike script with Charlie Hunnam impressing as Jay.
Grim displays of guilt and remorse are on show from all concerned, but the seriously glum expressions of a high-calibre cast can’t inject any meaning into such a contrived story.
The director of The Counterfeiters botches a crime thriller about siblings botching a robbery.
A strong cast makes up for thinnish characterisation.
