This is, with no doubt, one of the best movies I've seen in a long time, and seals my opinion that Tom Hardy is one of our greatest actors. This gem also stars James Gandolfini in what might have been his last performance. Noomi Rapace, the tattoo girl, also plays a big role.
The story revolves around a couple of owners of a working class bar who do minor services for organized crime and get wrapped around their own interpersonal axles. Strange twists and events with maybe an end that was too probable -- but good.
Hardy can brood with an unmatched intensity, and he holds it throughout the entire flick. He's almost too much to bear at times. And Gandolphini's last several films have been master performances.
Don't miss this one. Seek it out. Released in 2014.
