    “A slow but watchable movie” It all starts with a man who was having a good family due to an accident ends up in jail and the things he does to survive there. He ends up joining with a gang and does drug deals as well as kill people for the reputation of this gang. After many years he is sent on parole that’s when his gang leader gives him a deal to do and the police is behind him. So if he does the deal or not you have to find out by watching the movie I have not spoiled anything for you guys. The main hero I have seen him in game of thrones I have always known that he was a good actor and he continues that In this movie too and the walking dead guy he too does a classic acting. The movie has a slow start and it is slow in between I personally felt the movie was dragged in some places but as I said its watchable. The story line was OK so was the ending. I would say just check it out guys. Notable Acting Nikolaj Coster-Waldau famous for his acting in the tv series Game of thrones and the movies Oblivion and Mama Jon Bernthal famous for his acting in the tv series The walking dead and the movies like The wolf of wall street and Sicario My Rating 7/10
