re: The Rover (2014) - Anyone check it out yet?

Yeah, saw this flick a few days ago. Enjoyed isn't quite the right word I'd use for it, but I was incredibly impressed with Michod's follow up to animal kingdom. While extremely bleak and nihilistic it was beautifully shot, and the score was extremely effective. They used parts of a couple tracks by Tortoise, one of my all time favorite bands. I sat through the end credits just to soak up the music, last time I did that was for only lovers left alive.

The conversation between guy pearce's character, and the man charged with sending him to Sydney was chilling.
The performances were all very good, even mr. Pattinson's.
I will be looking forward to Michod's next film for sure.
