Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThough this is a film done by Netflix, the film was premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and later added to the streaming service lineup.
- GoofsWhen Deidra and Laney rob their first train, they see a police unit stopped at the train crossing as they slowly roll by it. To hide, Laney jumps off the side of the flatcar and Deidra opens the door and gets into the container. The officer sees the light from their flashlight on the side of the container and gets on board the (now stopped) train to investigate. The officer subsequently shines his light on Laney, who is camouflaged among some trackside debris, and then notices the container latch is open, with the security band obviously missing. The officer simply closes and latches the container before getting off of the train. No law enforcement officer who had gotten on board the train to specifically investigate possible criminal activity in this situation would simply just close the latch without opening it to investigate if there were someone inside and stealing from it, which was the reason he got on board in the first place.
- Crazy creditsThere's a mid-credits scene.

Featured review
A weak and uneven script fixed somehow in post production
This is a weak and uneven script. One sister has some background, yet the other does not have anything. Than you realize the scriptwriter wanted badly to make points with the losers in the audience that will empathize with the character because of bullying. And maybe trick some real reviewers into dropping a word about social issues. The pre production is awfully done. There is a family. But the individuals don't look anything like each other. Only in post production we get the nice parts like the way the title is made in the opening sequence.
And the awful moments of deus ex machina! The two women forget about the state employee visiting, but the apparently uninformed ex dad is there, for the first time in the whole script and he also had the time to clean up. His character might be a slob, but he surely knows how to clean a house with children home alone. And he is always very clean. Yet he is an underachiever.
Anyway, the over 30 characters are clownish.
