Dennis, a guy that is kicked out from his home due to eviction and then goes working for the agency that kicked him out (doing to others what has been done to him) to try to get his house back, stays constantly on the edge of his moral. "Am I doing the right thing now?" he seems to think every scene. The viewer is thrilled because the viewer itself tries desperately to give an answer to that question and help him, due to the "good guy" reputation that the director builds in the beginning, but of course no one can answer. Sure this is alone worth of watching the movie. But the real strong point of the movie is the beautiful depiction of the recession society of nowadays. You cannot decide to live an honest and full life with your family (as Dennis tries to achieve in every manner): you are either the one who kills or the one who will be killed. You are either a "good guy" that will struggle forever paying taxes, or the "rich bad guy" swimming in your pool, tryin' to cheat for a signature on a document that will kick the good guy out of his house. Fast scenes, fast moving cameras, all is needed to keep the pace high and the tension even higher, until the very end, when the music and the camera suddenly stop and Dennis stares at the sun with a shotgun that points on him.
