Lawless (2012) - BAD MOVIE
The film is supposed to be based on a true story. I am sure that there
is a grain of truth in that. Yet, it doesn't come out in the finished
product. Good old boys just out to make a living are by far too good to
be true. The big smoke villains are government officials, which had
gone rotten past the core, are more than a tad too villainous. And the
ending goes beyond the call of duty to show that the problem was (an by
implication still is) with the big government. If only, the good old
country folk were left to themselves to sort their problems.
The film is also badly paced, the script is jerky and the anticlimactic
finale is the final letdown. Skip it!
