I should start by saying that I did not pick this movie to see, but was glad to have seen it. Not only was the story interesting, but the actors did a great job (although I have to admit that I was waiting for Shia LaBeouf's character to be a little more of a fighter.) The actor that played Forrest Bondurant, Tom Hardy, is definitely on my list of actors to look for in future movies as he was very convincing in his role.
I have definitely decided to want to read the book that this is based on as I want to know more about the Bondurant family, and their involvement in the moonshine industry during Prohibition. This was a great movie.
Pros great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Thoroughly enjoyed the film. Great plot and acting. Fast moving despite its depiction of a slower-moving past.
Be warned. It is EXTREMELY gory. Violent in a sadistic kind of way, not the usual shoot 'em up, blast-anything-that-moves kind.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Cons sadistic violence
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Really thought it was going to be a lot of action & shooting....but was so taken by surprise when found out it was a true story.
Then really began to get so involved in the movie didn't want it to be over when credits started rolling. Kept my full attention from acting, story line & action!!! Wish more movies where done this way!!
Tired of all horror flicks...it was GREAT movie from a female point of view.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Cons had to end
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I enjoyed the movie. It was bloody, but it was a reflection of the times. Apart from the rough, bloody taile there was story of a family that caught your heart.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors

While the acting by the entire cast is top notch and the story somewhat interesting it moves at a snails pace. The dialect is well done, but extremely difficult to just plain hear st times. I noticed people all around me, of all ages, asking their seatmate what was said, and there was constant movement in and out of the theater. It also seemed to be a re-heated story very reminiscent of Bonnie and Clyde and the Hatfields and McCoys. However, as I said, the acting was extremely well executed and the visuals interesting.
Pros great actors
Cons slow
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Its about time someone made a movie with something about Prohibition, and to put it out as REAL LIFE. With how people actually interacted back then. The language, violence, and everything else. It's about time someone put it out "how it was" and not suger coat it.
