"Hell or High Water" is the story of two brothers trying to save the family ranch by robbing the bank that's going to foreclose on the property that recently had oil(lots and lots of oil) discovered on it. After she dies (where the movie starts), the brothers only have a little time to pay back the mortgage and taxes to the bank before the bank takes it and all the oil on it. So they devise a plan to rob the branches of the bank and "clean " the money by going to an Indian Casino so it looks like they won the money. It really speaks to what has been going on all over the country now a days.
Ben Foster plays the ex-con older brother and Chris Pine plays the younger brother. Jeff Bridges plays the soon to be retired Texas Ranger on their trail.
We saw it Tuesday and It is a really good movie. Has gotten rave reviews from IMDB , the Free Press, etc. Go see it and as a side note Son 1 was Second Assistant Director on it.
