Very good movie. Not quite innovative but the atmosphere is great and the actors are solid too. Jeff Bridges is a bright star for sure but I just loved Ben Foster and his sick character (not exaggerated though) and I think that people responsible for smaller part casting did an awesome job. The young waitress character or the old man in the bank are small gems in my opinion. And the music! Damn, so great and played a huge part in building and reducing the tension throughout the movie. Solid piece of cinema, definitely recommended.

Very disappointing, slow and boring and also it really didn't make any sense. Weak story. I cannot believe the 8.2 on imdb and 98%(!!) on RT

**Great storytelling! Just not my style...** I went to see this movie with great expectations and left a little bit disappointed. Not because this movie is bad. Not in any way! There are some beautiful shots, great use of color and very good dialogue. I would even say that the dialogue between Ben Foster and Chris Pine is the best I have seen in a movie in 2016. But I still left disappointed. Maybe it was because the music really didn't stand out or maybe because everything the movie told I expected to happen. It just needed an extra sparkle of surprise to get me fully involved. Sadly that sparkle never came. There just wan't a moment where I went from: "I'm watching a movie" to "I'm in the movie". If you love movies you will love Hell or High Water. Just don't expect to see something that totally blows you mind.

**An extinct, dusty town somewhere in Texas. Two rangers sit on the terrace of a slovenly café, waiting for something to happen. Nothing wrong with the bank branch on the other side of the street, but given the series of recent robberies, things could change quickly. And so the duo stays quiet, whi More

**Early bird gets the worm.**

From the British director of 'Starred Up' fame, it was like another 'The Place Beyond the Pines'. Feels like a modern western kind, because of where this story takes place, I mean Texas. There's no digital world like phones, computers et cetera, just an old fashioned More

A strong neo-Western that gets everything right, with good pacing, a simple but effective screenplay, great cinematography, sneaky humor and a solid cast.
