Lawless (2012)
Awesome!
Love this film! Tom Hardy is a rising star, that's for sure! I like the films from this genre, and love Boardwalk Empire, but this film was a pleasant surprise from what I expected. Always love Guy Pearce. This film was gritty, but real, and they really put you in the characters' shoes, starting with the environment and set. One of my top 10 of the year, and a nice answer to Savages before the Christmas season. Most films I like to watch twice before giving a review, but I just watched this film in the theaters and will be sure to view again at home at sometime in the near future. Also looking forward to Triple 9 coming out from John Hillcoat, also starring Shia LaBeouf. Can't wait for the trailer!

9 out of 10 stars!
Wow, what an indie! I really liked the acting, the drama, the romance. You even forget you're watching a 9/11 film, which is a sad surprise back to reality when the real news footage hits. I respect the filmmakers for really getting to the family aspect, which was what touched me the most. I wouldn't watch with kids too young, necessarily, cause some of the drama is heavy and real, but definitely on a date or with my parents or co-workers. This was a real wakeup call to the fact that it's 11 years later, but something that happened in a turning point in our lives. And I applaud this film for bringing it back to the basics of people in their day to day. Great movie.
