The story line started out as very intriguing. I loved how mysterious the movie was, and you really like so many of the characters. Unfortunately, the plot twist at the end of the movie just didn't sit right with me. I really wanted it to be something more government related, but this just felt cheap IMO.
The acting was very good. Julia Garner was easily the standout of the movie, she did a great job with how she conveyed her emotions, and I liked how she was a pretty likeable character. Josh Brolin was great, as usual. He always manages to be very diverse with how he portrays his characters. Amy Madigan did a good job as well, but I hated the twist with her character. Cary Christopher did a great job as well, especially for being only 9 years old. Alden Ehrenreich did a great job as well, as you didn't like him, but you still felt bad for him!
The direction of this movie was fantastic! I loved how they did the story by showing it from other characters perspectives, and it made the movie go by very fast. I love it when they do this style, as it makes you realize what you might have missed on first glance.
I am not interested in any kind of sequel to this movie. It had so much potential, but it just fell apart at the end, sadly!
Out of 4 stars I would give it...
2.5 out of 4 stars
