Overview
- Critics published first looks ahead of the Magnolia Pictures theatrical rollout, noting the film’s R rating and 90‑minute runtime.
- Bob Odenkirk plays an interim sheriff who discovers a corrupt small town hiding criminal ties, setting off brutal confrontations without tipping specific twists.
- Ben Wheatley directs from a script by Derek Kolstad, the creator of John Wick and writer of the Nobody films that helped pivot Odenkirk into action roles.
- Reviews point to a lean, hyperviolent style with comparisons to Nobody, First Blood, and Wheatley’s own Free Fire, stressing quick pacing over novelty.
- The Associated Press called it a gory good time and gave two and a half stars out of four, while other outlets praise Odenkirk and note predictable turns; the cast includes Henry Winkler and Lena Headey, and production took place in Winnipeg.
