🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director knows what they want to say — and that shows in every frame. The film doesn't scatter itself on unnecessary things, holds its chosen tone from start to finish.

There's something that puts it above the genre average. Not without weak points, but with strong enough merits to recommend.

A good choice for an evening when you want a film — just a good film.

Director: James Cruze
