Lawless 2012 by AverageMansReviews
Review Time: my opinions about this film title are really mixed.
Tom Hardy, Jason Clarke and Gary Oldman: put
in some great performances with their dialogue exchanges and stage presence [it
should be noted that Gary Oldman's appearances are limited, but it is always
good to see this performer in a title.]
But I digress;
Hardy and Clarke, individually or together have a really good understanding of
their character developments and family connections. The audience will get a
good sense when at least one of these characters are on screen that this film
has a good idea of what is coming next and so on and so forth.
I have to ask this
rhetorical question What is it with one other character's eyebrows? [This has
nothing to do with the three characters I have been discussing,] they just look
really, really strange. You will be able to notice them, because they are
either not there or something has gone wrong with them, I just have no idea
what happened here.]
But to be polite
without these three performers on screen at some point in these sequences, this
film is quite slow and I have to ask another rhetorical question [What is it
with this background music?] It is really off-putting and it just makes the
film feel really stretched out.
Action sequences: they are impactful and well put
together.
This film receives: 58% approval, if there are any fans of
Hardy, Clark or Oldman [keeping in mind his appearances are limited,] give this
film a look, but from an overview perspective this film is good-ish for a one
time viewing but that would be it.
