I enjoy a good crime suspense film, as well as anything with Hopkins, so I was really looking forward to this movie.
I wasn't disappointed. Great plot, good storyline (though a bit predictable), and the dialogue was well written with a little humor here and there.
Hopkins' performance was as expected, and Gosling was very convincing within his role.
My only criticism, and without giving too much away, is that I knew what had happened to the missing gun from the start. I also wasn't convinced at the dumbing down of Crawford's (Hopkins) intellect towards the end.
Aside from that, it's a great movie worth watching.
4.5
