Post Re: Felony
This was playing at the cinema when I was in Australia back in 2014, and I didn't manage to see it. I've just seen it now and it's totally not what I expected from the poster. I thought it was going to be a high level federal agent thriller, such as the Michael Douglas actioner, The Sentinel, or Richard Gere's The Double. But it's just about a hit and run. And I'm not talking it down. It's very good - loses its bite in the final third - but it's very well-acted and competently made. These Blue Tongue boys make excellent thrillers (I recommend The Square if you're only aware of their newer films). I've seen pretty much all of theirs now, and they always include real dilemmas and intriguing real world conundrums and human problems. Edgerton has long been a favourite of mine as an actor, but he also keeps impressing me behind the camera as a creator of high-quality stories for adults.

I also took great pleasure on Tom Wilkinson telling Jai Courtney that he's a fucking prick and that he's the one nobody likes in the band.
