Perhaps the worst sin a crime saga can commit is being dull, yet that's precisely what bogs down this Depression Era tale of a fugitive on the run who's shepherded out of harm's way by a star-crossed, impressionable, adventure-seeking youth.Perhaps the worst sin a crime saga can commit is being dull, yet that's precisely what bogs down this Depression Era tale of a fugitive on the run who's shepherded out of harm's way by a star-crossed, impressionable, adventure-seeking youth. (Think "Bonnie and Clyde" (1967) meets "Summer of '42" (1971), and you've got a rough idea what this one is about.) Unfortunately, neither the crime element nor the sexual tension is ever quite what it could (or should) be, with far too much boring chatter and only paltry servings of what should have made this film engaging. To be sure, Margot Robbie's performance as the bad girl femme fatale is a sure-fire winner, and the picture's stunning cinematography and superb production values place viewers right in the heart of the 1930s Dust Bowl.

This film takes place in the dust bowl in 30s Texas and the drama is at least that dry. Finn Cole plays a young man frustrated with his small town life and intrigued by crime stories.

Finn Cole plays a young man frustrated with his small town life and intrigued by crime stories. Enter a beautiful bank robber (Margo Robbie) who seduces him into helping her. While both of the performances are compelling, the overwrought script and deadly pacing can’t elevate this above mediocre romance drama. The excitement of a crime spree never materializes, leaving us with dashed expectations.… Expand

Margot Robbie continues to prove herself as a versatile actor but she can't save this dull and sluggish film

To be honest this film wouldn't have gotten the same attention if it weren't for Margot Robbie and I think she got the role to continue proving herself as a more serious actor, besides the stardom she got from Harley Quinn.

This movie was interesting but I didn't like the ending. If they would have made this more of a happy ever after kind of an ending I think it would have worked better. But just killing her off was kind of BS.
