Anyone watched it yet? I'm thinking about checking it out tonight:

I watched it about a week ago. Thought it was pretty good and original storyline. Worth a watch.

I watched this last night on Amazon Instant Video (via my PS3) for $7 bucks.

I thought it was really really well-done considering the super low budget (just under $500k via a Kickstarter campaign). It's shot beautifully, the lead actor is superb, and the action/gun/violent sequences are refreshingly realistic. The story is taut (movie is only 1h 30m) and there are great moments of suspense.

The film is in the same vein of Mud, Ain't Them Bodies Saints, Drive, Prisoners, etc. If you like Jeff Nichols and/or Steven Knight films you'll very likely enjoy this.

Downloaded it last week after reading a review on one of my favorite movie blogs.

Here's the review if you're interested. LINK
