Good Time
The Press Reviews
Merges the Safdies' signature gutter realism with tight genre mechanics to discomfiting but exhilarating effect. Full Review
This is a richly textured genre piece that packs a visceral charge in its restless widescreen visuals and adrenalising music, which recalls the great mood-shaping movie scores of Tangerine Dream. Full Review
It is a sombre, downbeat movie whose initial thrills give way to sadness. Full Review
This eyes-open-to-the-world NYC crime thriller is cocky, grubby and electric. Full Review
Good Time is a film about a destructive love - and loving someone despite not having the right kind of love to give them. Ignore the deceptively convivial title: This is the kind of thrill that sticks. Full Review
Features a strong performance from the criminally underrated Robert Pattinson. Full Review
Good time indeed. Full Review
Further solidifies Robert Pattinson as one of the most exciting actors working today. Full Review
If you're going to make a thriller, it has to feel like your life depends on it, not your next job. Full Review
