In NYC, Connie Nikas (Robert Pattinson) pushes his mentally handicap brother Nick into a bank robbery. They escape but a hidden dye pack explodes. Nick is caught by the cops. Connie desperately tries to get him out.
There is a devastating sense of inevitable doom. Connie's determination is undeniable. Pattinson's performance is awesome. His non-stop flow of lies are delivered with a straight face aggressiveness. It is uncomfortably mesmerizing. It never stops. My only wish is for the brothers to spend more time together. I would love to have the siblings' relationship develop. The surprise reveal is interesting although taking the standard path would have been fascinating. Pattinson is proving to be a compelling actor.
