Hell Or High Water (2017) - Be A Good One!

★★☆☆☆
Well, it’s me again, not the film itself. It’s got certain qualities like decent acting and editing, and sarcastic dialogues to make you crack a smile from time to time, but still I have no love for such neo films set in the West. ‘Hell Or High Water’ has the same feel that ‘No Country For Old Men’ delivers. The difference is, Coen Brothers’ films always seem to carry a high-above theme or deep thoughts, while the film just tells a mundane  story of brotherly love, though its title may suggest something more than that.

You see how a ‘bad’ desperado is supposed to be like fighting for what he thinks is worth fighting for in the film. It’s not easy to be one though. We’d rather live in our comfort zone long enough to be like a walking dead than try to step out of it to start living for real. Come hell or high water, be a ‘good’ desperado, and let it lead you to self-perfection rather than self-destruction! Again, good or bad is not definite. It’s always relative!
