I think the thing I like the most about this movie is that it didn’t try to be something it isn’t. The story doesn’t swing for the fences. It does a good job of going from moment to moment, scene to scene. We see a character evolve.
That’s the other great thing to enjoy about this movie. The main character evolves from a normal, hard-working guy into a killer, but at each stage, it seems plausible. That’s good character building.

Glen Powell is really stepping up his game, one movie at a time. I listened to him in an interview, and he said that when Top Gun: Maverick came up, he auditioned for the role of Rooster but didn’t get it. Which was a huge disappointment for him because he really wanted to work with Tom Cruise. Then, Tom Cruise calls him up and says they would like him for the role of Hangman. Glen said he wasn’t enthusiastic about that role because it wasn’t big enough, or something like that. Tom Cruise told him, “You don’t take big roles. You make big roles.” Glen said it’s the best advice anyone ever gave him. People helping people.
I’m not sure this is a must-see in theaters. But if you’re out and about, and just want to relax in a theater and enjoy a good, but not great, movie. Then by all means, I’m confident that you won’t be disappointed.

about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.

Disowned at birth by his obscenely wealthy family, blue-collar Becket Redfellow will stop at nothing to reclaim his inheritance, no matter how many relatives stand in his way.
Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂
Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
