Good Time
Hypnotic, Cannes Palme d'Or-nominated crime drama set in NYC starring Robert Pattinson. Directed by Joshua and Ben Safdie (Heaven Knows What).
After a botched bank robbery lands his younger brother in prison, Constantine Nikas (Pattinson) embarks on a twisted odyssey through New York City’s underworld in an increasingly desperate - and dangerous - attempt to get his brother out of jail. Over the course of one adrenalised night, Constantine finds himself on a mad descent into violence and mayhem as he races against the clock to save his brother and himself, knowing their lives hang in the balance.

Reviews & comments
Vulture
pressGood 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.
Variety
