"Guns don’t kill people; insecure, overcompensating idiots do."
- Variety
"Ben Wheatley's latest carnival of carnage."
- The Hollywood Reporter
"Ideology is thrown out the window, civility too, as everybody winds up being blood sacrifice to the name of the great god gunpowder"
- Vanyaland
Hot on the heels of his last feature High-Rise, Ben Wheatley (Sightseers, A Field In England) surprises with this all-guns-blazing action thriller.
America, 1978: Justine (Brie Larson) has arranged a deal on behalf of two Irishmen (Cillian Murphy, Michael Smiley) to buy a stash of guns from gangsters Vernon (Sharlto Copley) and Ord (Armie Hammer), but then there’s a misunderstanding and shots are fired … The standout cast have great fun with this shoot-’em-up and the playful script’s wry dialogue, as the manic standoff escalates into a bloody game of survival.
