Almost perfect movie! The tension throughout the entire movie, made me pissed my pants didn't want to leave a second of it.An Immigrant (i thought at one point it was said a war hero) is trying to run a successful business without the Mafia in-laws involved. He's facing many challenges as he's a easy target. He sticks to his guns to stay legit even as the things slowly getting out of the hand.
"All my life I was trying not to be a gangster"
The acting of Oscar Issac is as good as any! David Oyelowo, Jessica Chastain, Albert Brooks - all flawless! I can't compare the movie to anything I've seen before...The third movie by J.C. Chandor not only didn't disappoint, but blew me away!
