7/10
An Original Heist Film
18 December 2016
In Texas, after the death of his mother, the unemployed oil and gas worker Toby Howard (Chris Pine) is losing her ranch to the Texas Midlands Bank. Toby is divorced from his wife that lives with their two sons. When his brother Tanner Howard (Ben Foster) is released from the prison, they team-up to rob agencies of the Texas Midlands Bank to raise money to pay the loan so that Toby may leave the real estate to his sons. Meanwhile the racist Texas Ranger Marcus Hamilton (Jeff Bridges) that is near retirement and his Indian descendant partner Alberto Parker (Gil Birmingham) try to anticipate the next movement of the thieves.

"Hell or High Water" is an original heist film where the "bad guy" is indeed the bank. The characters are well-developed and the screenplay has witty dialogues, mostly from Jeff Bridges' character. My vote is seven.
