Carl Franklin and Billy Bob Thornton have crafted one of the finest good guys v. bad guys movies of the last twenty years. Moreover, Bill Paxton's performance is just a joy to watch. Every minute that Hurricane (Paxton) is on screen is just a burst of excitement and wonderful character development. This is filmmaking at its best.
The story picks up with a very violent drug deal gone bad in Los Angeles and ends with a violent showdown in a small rural town in Arkansas. The movie details how these two worlds came together. One of the strengths of this film is the gritty reality of the story. Many of the events seem very sordid and all too real. Moreover, the characters played by Billy Bob and his partners in crime are just so interesting. **** out of ****.
