Hell or High Water

"Funny, elegiac and thrilling, it’s a tale of brotherhood and family that takes in the harsh beauty of the land, the elusive nature of right and wrong and the quirky delights of human connections in a time of bewildering change" 

"Chris Pine, Ben Foster, and Jeff Bridges are all brilliant (...) 'Hell or High Water' channels the uncut adrenaline of crime, but it’s also a moral drama that takes the measure of each destabilizing action it shows us" 

"An instant classic modern-day Western, traveling down familiar roads but always, always with a fresh and original spin (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of four)" 

"A soulful outlaw tale with a socioeconomic perspective and a rich sense of place" 

"A mesmerizing, modern-day western that moves with the coiled intensity of a rattlesnake ready to spring (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of four)" 

"If 'No Country for Old Men' were remade as a heist movie, it might look something like director David Mackenzie’s Texas-set thriller 'Hell or High Water'." 

"The plot’s skeleton doesn’t evolve beyond 'cops chasing robbers,' but 'Hell or High Water' balances its widespread and intelligent humor with something that’s real, serious, and tremendously sad (...) A surefooted and perfectly enjoyable ride"
