Didn't know what to expect without A-listers and an independent film. Had me riveted! Well written story, good guys and gals were good, bad ones were bad, and the surprise at the end, make it a great movie as the definition goes.
Had the right amount of suspense, action that surprised when it wasn't expected. There were mentions in the dialogue that it was a town of simple people that were "stupid", but the writer and director gave the town's characters the benefit of the doubt. The scene in the records warehouse was a nice addition (being so massive, like a "Goliath"), no "time killers" (needless scenes of cars driving just to add or fill spaces).
A great overall package of what movie-making is, a gem in the rough; deserves more coverage! No over f-bombed language, no nudity, a film about justice, support of the image of the "Texas Lawman", a dogged investigator, simple, but nonetheless sneaky bad guys.
9 stars because, well, Star Wars it isn't, but in an industry full of overused bad language and other unnecessary filth that really isn't needed to make films seem "real", I was left with "wow! That was a great movie" when it was over!
Nice job folks!...
