Good points because the movie scenes are conveniently developed, they have good dynamics, the story is good, all in all, it is psychologically correct, "authentic" gangster story. The film's music is well supervised the editing (paralel editing) rises tension. The filmmakers brought an action-packed film to the "screen". One of the best scenes is the "I am not your friend..." one. Talking about scenes, I would mention a less effective one, in my opinion the derangement scene should be the high point of the film, but it's undeveloped exaggerated, without almost any preludes, like a wave in the sea, which came out of nowhere, not set stage by stage, there weren't previous motives for it in the film. And finally another small thing to add, the photography was sometimes too dark, and at certain scenes I would have liked to see a bit more, but this gave a unique atmosphere to the film.
