...with a particular emphasis on characters and performances, enhanced by a fun but gritty story with some very intense action.
Hell or High Water delivers in every aspect of film-making. From purposeful camerawork, subtle editing and directing choices to make way for the expertly written dialogue and performances by acting legend Jeff Bridges and acting talents Chris Pine and Ben Foster. There is a general sense of real people in real situations within a progressively strong and interesting story. It somehow manages to deliver a real punch without ever feeling dry or worn out.
It's just as long as it has to be and never outstays its welcome.
