I enjoyed the movie. Decent plot, capable acting, a fine supporting role for Ted Levine. I did notice some discrepancies however that bothered me throughout. I watched it on TV where the brief synopsis said "in a small Montana town ...", so I was surprised that the license plate of a long-residing character was from Missouri. Also, the deputy's shoulder patch clearly has the outline of Texas on it. Why not Montana? Or Missouri? The ending credits say the film was shot in Louisiana. Where was the continuity person?

Flaws in the script.. Many things don't make sense or not believeable but I still watched it

This is a pretty solid flick. It's not your typical thriller, and I feel like it falls more in the vein of Fargo. If you like Fargo, I'd say you'll like this movie as well. I'm not sure why the deputy's uniform has Texas on it when the movie seems to be set in Missouri? That's the only strange thing I saw, but maybe that had something to do with the county where it's set. The acting was impressive. Ted Levine was amazing, as he always seems to be. If you like artistic cinematography, there were a lot of impressive shots. Kudos to the director and cinematographer! It's one of those films that weighs on you after you watch it. It's a bit like watching a car wreck. You know things can't end well, but you keep watching anyway.

Hey, producers. Note: If you go to the trouble of intentionally setting your storyline in Missouri and go to the trouble of creating a fictional county and making sure the license plates say "Missouri," go the extra mile and make sure the deputy sheriff in the film isn't wearing an prominent "Texas" patch on his shirt. From the point that I saw that, all I could think was this story had a rank amateur lurking in the background somewhere.

I've started this movie with almost no expectation based on critics and viewers reviews. It was supposed to be badly acted, too slow, unfinished... but, I found none of the above. The movie has two major events, one in the beginning, one at the end, the rest can seem indeed slow and boring, but I think that was exactly the point, whatever happens in the arc between the beginning and the end it's just life, little moments, which I found were very well put together to imply that life goes on and it does not have to be extraordinary every day. It was what made the movie very realistic. As for the ending, without giving too many spoilers, I will just say that I think it was quite clear, even if the authors did not spell it out for us, the message was there, one look to freeze him on the spot for the time being and one left wide open door for him to come in eventually say quite enough. The entire movie was less about words and more about acting and I think the actors did a great job acting it.

Because of the various strikes, the TV networks have had to find programming to fill slots with, so I have been watching "Yellowstone" to see what all the fuss was about. This movie reminds me of that series in a couple of ways. Though this movie is set in Missouri which is relatively flat, it does have beautiful scenery including farms, and is supposedly set on a ranch even though little of the work of running a ranch is shown. And the primary plot line is the coverup of an accidental killing. On the TV series, though, no one seems to feel guilty and what is covered up wasn't an accident. Here, the person who did the deed was just careless but now must carefully plan to cover it up, or else, yet he does feel guilty about it eventually. And his accomplice manages not to show regret, which makes him more like the TV series cast.
The movie tries to make it look like everything is normal while over time, details will eventually come out and decisions will have to be made. Only because the truth is hidden from others is there any sense that most of the people have morals. But even as people find out more, maybe the expected actions aren't what would be expected.
Two actors were familiar to me, but the first one I didn't recognize for a while, and the other I didn't recognize at all even though I had seen his name in the credits. Gerlad McRaney has played so many great characters over the years. Here, he is in poor health but determined to do as much as he can. He has to be vulnerable but you know it's hard for a proud, strong man to go through what he is experiencing. He pushes hard to do what he has to do.
The other actor I knew was basically doing what I know him best for. Ted Levine I know as a detective who can't seem to solve the murders without the brilliant Adrian Monk. Here, I didn't recognize him but he seemed competent as a sheriff who might have a murder case. But if he doesn't solve the crime, it's because others are doing a great job of covering it up. And maybe he does solve the crime. We're kind of left hanging at the end.
The other real standout actor would seem to be Alycia Debnam-Carey, the sister who starts out seeming to need mentoring from her older sister, but ends up being the strong one in the family and having to handle being in charge of everything, including her sick father. And she goes through a crisis later in the movie when she learns what she didn't know, but ends up leaving us wondering what is going on.
Brenton Thwaites is a steady force who eventually has to go through moral dilemmas. If he gives a good performance, it's just that he has to be the calming influence when he knows his life could fall apart at any time. He comes across as being like a more serious Topher Grace.
As his brother, Ben Robson shows more vulnerability has the more challenging job as a tough veteran but has to go through life wondering if the truth will come out.
I'm only guessing as to the identity of Ray's new girlfriend. Francesca Eastwood looks naughty but is actually quite polite and dignified.
Claire Holt is the sister who starts out seeming more mature, then turns reckless, then gets a little too playful in the scene where the big event happens.
A young child has a couple of good scenes. It's his mother who died.
There was good country music played at the Whisperin' Pig bar, and then loud music that didn't appeal to me. Music was used effectively in the movie, with some scenes making it obvious something bad was going to happen, or had happened.
Plenty of cleaning up had to be done to make this suitable for TV. A lot of words were missing and body parts or signs of violence or whatever made blurry. On the subject of editing for TV, the credits show four of the characters were played by different people when younger, but I don't recall seeing them.
It's not what I would choose to watch, but there's just enough to make it worthwhile.

This movie was not good at all. The plot was ok starting off but it went downhill fast!

It's hard to say exactly what downgrades this film. I thought the performances were truly solid. The storyline was compelling and well thought out. Honestly, I think it was the soundtrack. I hate to say this, because it's a genuinely stunning score, it just served to strike too much of a melodramatic tone. I think the overall presentation of the film would have been served better by a more minimalistic score and corresponding editing.
All that said, I think it's worth a watch.

Visually very nice, acting was fine. It had the potential of being a really good and intense story. But the ending was basically a non-ending, and we were disappointed to say the least.

Sure don't look like Montana. Long leaf Pine. Bad set. Poor script. Bad acting for most part.

I thought this was very good. The only criticism is that it should be under crime drama and not crime thriller. The crime starts the movie and then we see how time, guilt and life is changed for all of them due to that one event. Definitely one of the better flicks I have seen in the past few months.

The best thing about this movie is that it may discourage others from using the stale phrase that finding obscure crime scene evidence is as needles and haystacks.

I was excited to see this film for 1 reason mainly and thats because I love Alycia Debnam-Carey but it was a great film which I enjoyed from start to finish. My favorite genre in films is thriller the ones that keep you guessing and this was one of them I dont believe it was slow or boring I feel while watching it had an element of guessing work. I highly recommend if you havent seen it the actors were cool and did a good job and im so proud of Alycia herself for producing such masterpiece and also she looked beautiful.

This movie has very fascinating dramatic story lines, amazing acting, especially from Alycia Debnam-Carey who was beautiful in this, and visually stunning. Most people don't know how hard it is to pull this off with only the limited resources and time this indie movie had and even for a big budget film it was truly very enjoyable! Definitely worth the watch!

I actually really enjoyed this movie! Didn't know any of the actors besides Robson, who I knew from Animal Kingdom and liked his performance in the movie a lot. Was good to see him in a different role and thought it fit him perfectly. Also enjoyed the story, the location, and the characters were all interesting. So I basically loved everything until the end. Not gonna go into detail, watch it for yourself and get your own opinion. Its definitely a great story and movie is well done but the end was disappointing to me, they could have done more with it!
