Cast: Jaeden Lieberher, Michael Shannon, Joel Egerton, Kirsten Dunst, Adam Driver and Sam Shepard
Director: Jeff Nichols
Release: March 18
Critical Acclaim: Competed for the Golden Bear at the 66th Berlin International Film Festival
The Deal: A young boy (Lieberher) and his father (Shannon) go on the run and are being chased down by both the FBI and members of the religious cult from where the boy was held.
Intriguing sci-fi flick with great acting from the adults (Shannon/Dunst) as well as the kid. Driver sort of “redeems” himself for what his character “did” in December’s Star Wars sequel.
Rating: 4/5
