The Drop (2014)
Directed by Michael R.
Roskam this film based on the short story “Animal Resuce” stars
Tom Hardy, Noomi Rapace and James Gandolfini. A quiet man works at
his cousin's bar that is occasionally used a drop point for money
belonging to organised crime.
This is a really nice
slow burner of a film and fits in well with the standard set by other
adaptations based on the works of Dennis Lehane. Taking a fairly
simple and familiar set up the script includes some great characters
that help elevate the story. It helps there are great performances
from the cast, particularly Tom Hardy as the film hinges on his
performance completely.
4/5
