    Lawless (2012)



    New flick from John Hillcoat (The Proposition, The Road). Don't care much for Shia LaBeouf, but this looks like a good one

    LAWLESS is the true story of the infamous Bondurant Brothers: bootlegging siblings who made a run for the American Dream in Prohibition-era Virginia. In this epic outlaw tale, inspired by true-life tales of author Matt Bondurant's family in his novel "The Wettest County In The World", the loyalty of three brothers is put to the test against the backdrop of the nation's most notorious crime wave.

    Movie did kinda shitty at the box office, bringing in less than $10-mil domestically. Though, I guess it's to be expected since these types of drama/action films don't normally make a lot at the BO anyway.

    I caught it yesterday. It was alright none of the three brothers really have much to do and the plotting could have used a jolt. Not nearly as depressing as John Hillcoat's other films, but still has plenty of that beautiful decay imagery.

    Caught this earlier--good flick

    Hardy and Pearce steal every scene, but like choptop said, none of them were really given a whole lot to do. I just expected a bit more action or more from the gangsters, but as it is, it's not bad. You just gotta go in expecting a period drama about bootlegging and not so much about hicks vs gangsters, like I thought it'd be. Either way, still a good movie. 7/10
