When law student Harper (Tye Sheridan) wakes with an almighty hangover the last thing he expects at his front door is threatening tough guy Johnny Ray (Emory Cohen) and his girlfriend Cherry (Bel Powley), but he soon comes to realise that a drunken bar conversation the previous night is about to turn into a dark and dangerous reality. Harper obsesses that his step-dad Vincent (Stephen Moyer) is responsible for the car crash that has left his mum in a coma, and Johnny Ray is here to drive them all to Vegas where he's agreed to kill Vincent for $20,000. Harper's claims that he was drunk when he hired him fall on deaf ears and he realises he might not be able to change course; if he wants to survive this, he needs to carry on down the road he's already chosen, even if there's clearly danger up ahead.

English Even though the characters may initially seem like caricatures, the one played by Tye Sheridan turns out to be considerably more intriguing in the end. Perhaps it unnecessarily doesn't follow a chronological order, but in my opinion, it doesn't have any necessary effect. However, it's appropriately raw, and some scenes can send chills down your spine. ()
