"You're gonna have a good time." This is technically a crime drama but really it is a story about brotherly love. Robert Patterson is great in this. He really is showing how good an actor he is and trying to put the twilight movies behind him. The cinematography is fantastic too. A lot of extreme close ups make this feel much more personable. The neon colors used made some scenes really pop. The original score is amazing, builds tension really well. Very good movie and I definitely had a good time seeing it.

I never thought one of the most thrilling films of 2017 would be a film about a deadbeat moron and his retarded brother. Its fascinating how great this movie was, i was on the edge of my seat the entire time even though the story itself was nothing special. The characters were extremely realistic, the plot was riveting and the cinematography was brilliant. Good Time is a good fucking time.

I really like movies that can get you paralyzed in front of the screen, which leaves you almost without breathing because you can feel all the adrenaline of the character. good time did that. the plot developed very well from start to finish. the cast fit very well. also having a divine photograph, with neon colors that stand out from the night scenery. The great and credible performance of Robert Pattinson was essential to pass on that sensation. Pattinson, as Connie Nikas, brought an absurd dramatic charge into his eyes, full of guilt, anger, will, fear. Speechless!

What a retarded movie. Nothing even close to interesting. Everything about it feels extremely low budget.

I felt myself so exhilarated at the last scene for Nick’s sake, because finally he managed to be quit of Connie, who was - and don't sugarcoat it - a scumbag. Connie is the kind of man who gets away with everything, saves himself and leaves everyone and everything behind him just for secure hi More

Never before has somebody drinking a bottle of Sprite made me wince in sympathetic pain and terror.

_Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go._

A gritty, anxiety-inducing heist-gone-wrong film capturing the kinetic energy and depressing vibe of those eeking out a living (legal and illegal) in the big city.

The acting is phenomenal with a powerhouse performance by Robert Pattinson and a surprisingly poignant performance by co-director Be More

The sleazy, bleak, and primal low budget crime thriller “Good Time” feels like a cinematic punch in the face. The more I think about this film through my figurative black eye, the more I like it. It’s rare to find a movie so confident and wholly committed to its bleak tone, bursting onto the s More
