FINEST HOLLYWOOD TRADITION




Even after all the recycling, rebooting and revamping, there is still quality in modern Hollywood. The problem is it is rare, hidden and non-commercial.

„Hell or high water” is one of those well balanced mixes of drama, action, comedy and social criticism that Hollywood used to send to box office in two decimal numbers per year, but nowadays does that only once or twice. Atmosphere of economy run down Texas is realy convincing as well as the musical background and acting. Jeff Bridges is just perfect as a mysogene ranger awaiting pension, Ben Foster is reliable as always, bringing the much needed humor to ease the situation down, and even Chris Pine tries his best to keep up with his well developed character. There will be no false American partiotism and pathetic will hold well inside the barriers of the acceptable until the western-like ending.

„Hell or high water” is one of those movies that made Hollywood and the ones it desperately needs right now.
