Lawless (2012) is a movie in my DVD collection that I recently watched again on Tubi. The storyline follows a family that thrives by selling moonshine during prohibition. The youngest brother looks to prove himself by expanding the business; and in doing so, gets the attention of a US Marshall. Will he destroy the business or take it to new heights?
This movie is directed by John Hillcoat (The Road) and stars Tom Hardy (Bronson), Guy Pearce (Memento), Shia LaBeouf (Transformers), Jason Clarke (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes), Jessica Chastain (Interstellar), Gary Oldman (True Romance) and Noah Taylor (Vanilla Sky).
I have always adored this movie. Everything about this picture is well done - the love story, the dynamics of a family of brothers, the moonshine trade, the mob elements and Guy Pearce was a tremendous villain. The action in this picture is phenomenal - the fights, shootouts and one of the best throat slices you will ever see. This movie really has just about everything you'd want to see and Hardy delivers an amazing performance.
This is an underrated American cinematic gem. I would score this a 10/10 and strongly recommend it.
