About this movie

From Taylor Sheridan the writer of Hell or High Water and Sicario comes a gripping crime thriller set in the unforgiving snow plains of Wyoming. Elizabeth Olsen (Avengers Age of Ultron) stars as a rookie FBI agent tasked with solving the brutal murder of a young woman in a Native American reserve. Enlisting the help of a local hunter (Jeremy Renner, Captain America Civil War) to help her navigate the freezing wilderness, the two set about trying to find a vicious killer hidden in plain sight. The closer they get to the truth the greater the danger becomes with a town full of explosive secrets ready to fight back.

Ratings and reviews

I really liked this, but it's hard to see these guys in a film together without the rest of the marvel gang. He plays the same type of character as Hawkeye, but it does suit him. I definitely loved the end of this - the bad guy/s get a taste of their own medicine.

A bit disappointing. I thought it was ok, but expected more with the reviews it got. If I was marking out of 10, I'd give it a 6to 6 1/2 out of 10 pushing it.

Solid thriller with some good central performances by Jeremy Renner and Elisabeth Olsen. A slow burn of film. If you like fast paced and quick edited action movies look elsewhere.
