**The coldest place in the country feeling heat of murders!**

It's not about Wall Street or the financial related related film. The title is where this story sets in, a small town in the United States. This is a thriller about a young man Dwayne, who captured the murder of a mailman while making a video with his girlfriend. Following the event a series of murders takes place. When he comes to know the killer is after him, it's time to reveal us why it's all happening. Meanwhile the sheriff intensifies his investigation considering for the first time such thing happening on his watch in the town.

Really a good theme, but some silly plots or the reason behind events makes us to feel this is a stupid film. I mean people can do anything for the silly reasons, but the film did not convince on that. Though the locations were good and so the actors. Hemsworth, Malkovich, Dern, Palmer, particularly Stuhlbarg was very good. The narration had no point of view, it was told from every character. It was directed by some television filmmaker, should have been better, but not bad for a view. This is a hit and miss thriller, I hope you watch it for a simple entertainment than anticipating too much out of it.

_6/10_

This comedy thriller has been painted with the same brush used by the Coen brothers with everything not quite as it seems. Like a Coen film the story is tight and moves along and supported by a stellar cast you are going to get more enjoyment from the action on the screen than ‘sighs’.

The film is definitely sold as a comedy but truthfully the comedy moments have huge gaps between them, it’s not like you do not laugh at what happens but not as much as you might think. Thankfully the twists and turns, whilst possibly telegraphed to the jaded old-hands watching are quickly revealed so the build-up does not get stale or outstay its welcome.

There must be plaudits to Michael Stuhlbarg who I genuinely did not recognise until I saw the credits. He is a long way from Arnold Rothstein and here is more the evil cousin of Milton from Office Space and it is probably not a coincidence his character is named Derby Milton.

Certainly my attention span did not wonder and my disbelief was duly suspended for the entire running time the best compliment I can pay the cast.

The aforementioned Stuhlbarg played his character on the right side of creepy and not over-the-top melodramatic but the other cast were stellar, if that needs saying when you have Thornton, John Malkovich and Bruce Dern sharing screen-time. I have to give credit to Australian actress Teresa Palmer who was almost pitch perfect as the local bigwigs, sparky and positive daughter, particularly as she wasn’t give that much of a role in the first place.

Liam Hemsworth was fairly monotone and bland but this actually fit his stupefied and slightly stupid character.

Overall this is an enjoyable murder mystery that is elevated by its top notch cast but thinking about it I have the feeling something intangible is missing make it feel slightly ‘lite’ but it is still much, much better than the normal fare.
