It is certainly not for all tastes and gives political correctness the middle finger, but it's a rare modern day flick aimed at adults and a must-see for genre buffs and kept my attention in vice like grip throughout its lengthy running time. My Rating: 8,5 out of 10.
In an age of bloated, formulaic CGI-laden super hero pics, this is a special treat for those of us who like our pulp fiction gritty, hard and down-and-dirty.

Sounds like his other two movies, so I’m in. He is an underrated talent at the moment. |

I am intrigued and wanna go but not sure I can make it... how hard should i try? Yeah I saw it in theaters and really dug it. Zahler is now 3 for 3 with me . Gibson & Vaughn work really well together . Just letting you know it is a LONG film (2 hours 40 minutes) so it could test your patience a bit.

I am intrigued and wanna go but not sure I can make it... how hard should i try? I'm a big fan of S. Craig Zahler so I'd say this is worth seeking out. I can only imagine how great Bone Tomahawk and Brawl in Cell Block 99 would've been on a big screen. |

Aaargh. good to see all the love for the director though. |

Watched it earlier and all I can say is that it made me sad. Sad because it's a small movie with huge ambitions and a lot to say and yet it barely even made it to theaters and I was forced to watch it on my laptop screen at home. No, it's not a huge spectacle that requires a big screen, but it deserves a true theatrical release.
As for Zahler, this is his best movie. I get why people would not like his style, but it works for me *so* well. Every second of the movie is building to character interactions and decisions that become more and more urgent as it goes. It's just pure filmmaking in every way.
It's also worth mentioning that he has taken a massive step forward twice now. Brawl in Cell Block 99 is much better than Bone Tomahawk, and this is bigger and more confident than 'Brawl' in every way. Watch this movie.

I am going to be "that guy" and say yeah, too bad it didn't get a theatrical release and yet the story is yet another white man failure theme. Film Noir and crime used to have much more story variety. This review makes me laugh since the film is full of multicultural virtue signalling and suggests the nobility of criminals: www.nationalreview.com/2019/03/dragged-across-concrete-conservative-action-movie/ |

In my town, a lot of known movies never played at the 1 cinema in town. Or it was gone rather quickly. A few years ago I wanted to see Expendables 3 and would have had to go 15 miles to see it by bus (despite having 6 cinema screens in town now). Not worth it. Glad I waited for video.
