Blue Ruin
The car should have had top billing. (Good use of $150 on the part of the filmmakers.)

Peaky Blinders: Season 1
Such daring music choices, unsettling cinematography, and stellar actors, but the tale - being at heart a romantic one - did not fire the imagination.

True Detective: Season 1
McConaughey can make wildly irritating acting choices (his demeanor as the older Rust). On purpose?
