Dom Hemingway (2013)
6/10
Not really satisfying, but it's watchable

This is a watered down "Broson" except it just isn't as raw or good as "Broson". It's more stylish and I could tell at the beginning Jude Law was trying to do his best Broson impression. But it's nowhere near as convincing or powerful as Tom Hardy. Dom Hemingway (Jude Law) isn't as cool or likable as Broson, but despite his super narcissistic and selfish actions he does have a conscience and a code he stands by. I don't know, but there is just something about men with certain codes that makes them stand out. This movie however although not all that satisfying does a good job of building up the character Dom Hemingway to the point of getting the audiences to sympathize with him. I did also like the erratic direction of it all, I expected the movie to go in a certain direction but it goes in another completely different one. Overall this is a watchable flick, just not really a satisfying one.

6.3/10
