Acerca de esta película

Texas brothers Toby (Chris Pine), and Tanner (Ben Foster), come together after years divided to rob branches of the bank threatening to foreclose on their family land. For them, the hold-ups are just part of a last-ditch scheme to take back a future that seemed to have been stolen from under them. Vengeance seems to be theirs, until they find themselves on the radar of Texas Ranger, Marcus (Jeff Bridges) looking for one last grand pursuit on the eve of his retirement, and his half-Comanche partner, Alberto (Gil Birmingham). As the brothers plot a final bank heist to complete their scheme, and with the Rangers on their heels, a showdown looms at the crossroads where the values of the Old and New West murderously collide.

Lots of lovely big sky scenes, and great shots of what must be a beautiful but desperately hard place to live. Great acting from all the male leads, lots of emotion but in a tough texan unspoken way. Good action sequences. Very enjoyable film!

Not bad. It reminded me how soulless large parts of the US is. I suppose that's what a non-American in this case a British director sees. Well acted and the pace isn't too slow.

Excellent movie and a unique take on the cat and mouse hunt. You get a real sense of the dirt and grit and there is never a dull moment.
