Fun, light hearted yet darkish buddy movie with good dialogue. The beginning is a bit slow and a few scenes are weak but it really picks up 1/3 into the movie and the last 30 minutes are great. “Have you ever eaten cat meat?”… hilarious!

Offbeat comedy thriller is enjoyable to watch, helped in part by its unusual characters and off the wall dialogue.

I don't think there is anything particularly special about this indie. The two leads are enjoyable especially Elijah Wood who is very funny. The tone is very inconsistent and gets a little too serious in the finale, but its an enjoyable Netflix watch.

This is Macon Blair's directorial debut. Given he produced and starred in 'Green Room' and 'Blue Ruin' I was really keen to see what he could do.

The problem with this film is that it isn't quite sure what it wants to be. It's too funny to be a thriller, and it has to many serious elements to be a full out comedy. Therefore it ends up being a mish mash of both. It's a bit like a Ben Wheatley black comedy co-written by Edgar Wright. While that might sound appealing it just doesn't click with me because it gets it a bit wrong, especially in the final act.

I really liked Elijah Wood's character and I was totally on board with what the film was actually trying to tell me, it just didn't pull it off very well.

Blair is still one to watch though I feel. 6/10

Great debut from Macon Blair! The film is fun, quirky and sometimes even a bit dark and bloody,but never exaggerated. Worth your time.

Damn I didn't expect this to get so serious. What seemed like a standard tragicomedy took a really dark turn and gave Fargo/Tarantino vibes near the end.

SPOILER:
I'm so glad Tony survived omg and I loved what they did with the smoke to make us think that he didn't XD

Decent but not nearly worth all of the praise that it received

Jeremy Saulnier and Macon Blair are fantastic filmmakers. I can't wait for whatever they are doing next.

Totally unpredictable and absolutely brilliant. Can't recommend this one highly enough.

It' was okay. Entertaining with a few funny moments. Imagine Napoleon Dynamite meets Death Wish. but less funny.

A really enjoyable distant relative of Falling Down with strong Fargoesque overtones. Starts super slow and gradually taking up pace to a catarthic finish. Full of hilarious moments - the center of which most often is the perfectly cast 'urban ninja' character played by Elijah Woods. Has maybe the most disturbing toilet scene I have ever seen in a movie...

This is a delightfully odd, quirky, surprisingly funny movie. I don't think you'll regret watching it.

How I rate:
1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too
9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!

Good movie with a excelent combination of comedy with agro. I really enjoyed watch it but I feel something is missing. Deserving a price in Sundance is cuestionable.

Very unique movie, with a good mix of genres. The characters and the story were nice. The directing was a bit sloppy at times though.
