Hell or High Water
Texas. Beer. Guns. Throw in a couple of well-meaning bank
robbers and you got yourself a movie. The cast is great here. The pace is
brisk. The action is tense. And there’s no bad guy. The bad guy is the bank
that low-balls sick people and repos their houses. So it’s not even that the
story is so original or that the plot is so strong. These are pretty
conventional pieces. It’s the THEME that makes this so good. It makes you want
to rob a bank.
