I totally love the movies with
sudden shocking moments, unexpected twists and turns, with leads starting from
one point targeting to reach an end, being chased by someone with enough of
action and if it has a love angle thrown in – the better. This had almost
everything of that sort that too in perfect doses with one of my favorite guy
“Eric Bana” in lead but in a heart breaking negative role. I saw him in a movie
after such a long time (If you do not count “Avengers”) and yet it looks like
this too didn’t work at the box office. C’mon man! How someone can put such a
cute guy that too as a villain and I hoped secretly for his survival but would
he? Check out the movie to see it for yourself. Addison (Eric Bana) and his
sister Lisa (Olivia Wilde) are on lose after a robbery gone wrong with a lot of
cash, looking forward to escape to Canada without getting noticed by anyone. A
parallel track of Jay (Charlie Hunnam) X con after serving his sentence is an
Olympic Gold Medal winner coming back to his parent’s house right after he
beats his own coach black and blue – thinking he has killed him is on a run
from another conviction. Both of these tracks and people meet at Jay’s home
with the county Sheriff and his brave daughter Hannah (Kate Mara) who is about
to join FBI are already on the lookout for these people. What happens next and
in between is a cat and mouse game between criminals and cops shot in a very
interesting and gripping way. That too with precise 90 minutes of its running
time makes it for a perfect crime drama if you ask me. As the name suggests – a
lot of people are shot dead obviously for a reason and some do fight for their
life before killing each other. If you like thrillers – chances are you are
going to like it. I will certainly rate it a good 2.5/5 and will call it a good
one time watch for sure.
