2012 · Film · 115 min
Directed by John Hillcoat
In 1931, the Bondurant brothers of Franklin County, Virginia, run a multipurpose backwoods establishment that hides their true business — bootlegging. Middle brother Forrest is the brain of the operation; older Howard is the brawn, and younger Jack, the lookout. Though the local police have taken bribes and left the brothers alone, a violent war erupts when a sadistic lawman from Chicago arrives and tries to shut down the Bondurants operation.

The two you need to watch:
- Get the Gringo
- Grabbers
The rest:
- Cloud Atlas was...interesting.
- Pitch Perfect was the absolute worst, but hilarious. In a similar vein: For a Good Time, Call.
- Argo and Beast of the Southern Wild are overhyped in my opinion.
- Life of Pi was great (make sure to read the book at some point).
- End of Watch was better than advertised.
- Dark Knight Rises was a solid conclusion to the series.
- Ted was funny, but doesn't work so well on repeat views.
- Other movies you should watch: The new Total Recall. Safety Not Guaranteed. Lawless. The Amazing Spiderman (awesome series reboot)
