I had lots of fun watching it. Gripping from the first minute. Love the combination of documentary and fiction and how characters mingle with real events. I get that some people are more into conventional films and can't enjoy films that are more out there, but personally, I wish more indie movies were like this one!!!
Do not bother and waste your time on this. Acting and storyline are the worst
The plot very hard to follow. Some parts dragged on more than necessary, while other parts of the story are missing. This movie appears to be incoherent woke propaganda. This is 90 minutes I wasted and cannot get back.
AMERICAN THIEF is a real discovery. This wildly original, truly thrilling film has the immediacy, daring and perspective of only the best cinematic triumphs of recent years-yet it's a true American Indie, shot because it HAD to be. Though it is entirely modest and unpretentious, it is also vital and thrilling. AMERICAN THIEF leads up to an astonishing climax on Election evening 2016. In it you will find both documentary and fiction, the past and the future. It does not wrap itself up in a tight little ball so you can never think of it again-even now that that election night, when it was set and shot is PERHAPS mercifully fading from our lives. Maybe ESPECIALLY so.
There's an hour and a half that I'll never get back!
