The literary prowess of reviewer Peter Sobczynsky is worthy of a high school freshman:

"Even though none of them are especially revelatory, the performances are probably the best thing to be had in the film."


(Roger Ebert rolls over)

Jeff Bridges is always fun to watch, comic relief from a grim crime spree but not much more here.

Ben Foster is the reason to see this movie. His presence in this film is not unlike Joe Pesci in Goodfellas. Explosive, even (especially) with his eyes closed.
