I won't paraphrase the storyline as others have done here so well. I will add that the momentI hit play on the BD Player, I was so engrosed in the film I realized I was still sitting
on the edge of my seat after the first 20 minutes before I made myself comfortable, and never once hit pause.
I was riveted by Tom Hardy's acting, his portrayal was an original. It did not rely on a particular accent, clothing, make-up, mental defect or resemblance to a historical figure. He created an intelligent backwoods bootlegger, who despite his profession and its violence, lived by a code so strong that he appeared invincible. The glimpses of his tenderness he allowed himself were profoundly felt. The film was satisfying in its cinematography, cast, and story.This film is worth the watch. Great acting and good story.Old gangster movie with lots of action and gives good insight of times during the moonshine era.I really enjoyed this movie despite the reviews at the time it came out.
Ignore any online reviews by the so called media reviewers because this
movie is well worth it.
I enjoyed it so much I bought some books here at amazon regarding this slice of history
of alcohol prohibition in America.
The acting was superb.
It shows the rampant corruption among politicians and the police forces and shows the story of one family (3 brothers)
who refused to pay the currupt politicians who had the police do their dirty work.
Rent it ..it's a 4 star movie.I really enjoyed how this movie was filmed! It really took you back in time and I enjoyed it from beginning to end! Shia LeBeouf was great in this movie!I thought overall this movie was very good! The slow start almost had me turn it off, but I am glad that I didn't because I really enjoyed it. The characters were all very interesting...and well acted. I would recommend watching the movie, and sticking with it through the slow beginning.
