Standout Aspects

Acting

Wes Bentley's unraveling is so specific you want to look away.

Direction

Saar Klein's debut has that 'first-time filmmaker' rawness that actually works.

Best for:Solo: Late-night anxiety viewing when you're questioning your own life choices.·Rewatch: Second viewing hits different once you know how deep the delusion goes.
Heads up:Violence: Brief but realistic robbery violence; more psychological than graphic.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Saar Klein was Terrence Malick's editor for 20 years; this is his first and only feature as director.

Insight

The film deliberately mirrors 2008 recession anxieties but refuses the 'criminal mastermind' fantasy — Bill stays mediocre, which is the point.
