I watch movies every week and then write down my thoughts. Read my previous reviews!
My rating is simple, Watch It, It Depends, Skip it.

| The Rover - He really wants his car back. |
Watch The Rover
Written by: David Michôd, Joel Edgerton and David Michôd (based on a story by)
Directed by: David Michôd
Starring: Guy Pearce, Robert Pattinson, Scoot McNairy
Rated: R
Plot:
After having his car stolen, a man stops at nothing to get it back.
Review:
It feels a bit like a western, perhaps due to the bleak setting. You question what is really driving the plot, other than the contrived premise, and the dynamic between the main characters casts a shadow of uncertainty. It's well acted and a welcome change of pace to a 'typical' movie.
It depends.
