A brief trip back home turns into a longer stay when Eric finds himself caught between catching up with his two sisters and conquering his old poker group. The more Eric extends his visit to prove that he is still the best poker player in town, the harder it becomes to steer clear of the old fault lines in his relationship with his sister Rachel. As their little sister Maggie attempts to recreate the intimate world they once shared, Eric and Rachel are faced with the divide between their childhood selves and the adults they have now become.
Displaying all the sensitivity and wicked humour of his previous works, Dustin Guy Defa’s new film is a shrewd study of the pitiless condition known as adulthood. After growing up in a family unit that constitutes your whole world, with its particular set of habits and a shared language, crossing the border into the realm of adults can feel disempowering, even terrifying. A sense of loss may be difficult to ever really overcome. The film’s meticulous structure and novelistic depth lay bare this fundamental fear, but also the resources that exist to fight it. Setting about this treasure hunt deep within as individuals and as a family is an admirable trio of actors whose interpretation is as nuanced as it is poignant.
英国最好的男演员，没有之一

他不说话，只倾听，没人知道他脑子里想什么
我有预感这部电影将会被国内翻拍，或者改成舞台剧全国巡演……
北野武不完全回忆录
3.5
而令我直接拉满到五星的，在于剧本与演员对人物关系的微妙变化掌握得极为细腻，很直接就能通过语言、动作、表情等各方面立体地向观众呈现出多方势力即时的敌我角力，氛围张力一下就烘托起来了。面对不同的意外冲突，主角们的走向选择更是成为了紧钩住观众的悬念。
救人、挑衅、要人、暴露、设明局、真相大白、补刀，几个高潮迭起，固定场景下特别环环相扣的悬疑，哪怕开始就猜中老爷子无所不知，也能看得心潮澎湃。四星半。
虽然整场戏都是在一个狭小的空间内上演，但是一点都不闷，节奏张弛有度。
小成本佳作，剧情工整多次反转BUG不明显，马克·里朗斯发挥出色。总结说就是各方面做的都不差，但也称不上最佳，尤其是几次为了反转而反转没有做好铺垫，显得非常生硬。最后就是这个译名，誓不低头到底什么鬼？直译又是什么鬼……
故事的推进其实有些禁不起细敲，但是经不住讲得好看精彩。
剧本杀电影不只靠剧本，还要靠演技，马克里朗斯成功展现了一个复杂角色的多层次，隐藏在最深处的恨意被层层包裹再随着剧情层层剥开，充分满足了类型的爽感和反转的可信度，国内改编成啥样我都快能猜出来了
看的时候很爽，尤其是藏尸那段
窃听录音带是个关键，我觉得也是个bug，前面投过那么多次的信封，难道黑帮从没听出是假的吗？再说一个小小的裁缝店能录到什么秘密啊。
四点五星，很棒的电影，精良制作朴实无华，哪怕不是演北野武的故事，也不失为一部上佳的片子，演员演技炸裂毫不做作，自然得丝毫不露痕迹，很多动人的小情节，数度感动，非常值得一看，推荐推荐。
剧本很棒，前半段低智三人组搞笑，后半段多重反转精彩，结局足够高潮且没有刻意，但都比不上Mark叔叔神仙演技，每个小眼神都让人尖叫嗷嗷嗷。超喜欢女主，聪明，独立，潇洒，不是太美但独有风情。摄影和配乐都是imitation的翻版，唯独前半段的剪辑好多地方非常突兀…有一种刚毕业的广告导演拍猎奇mv的感觉…

到底姜还是老的辣，男主成功诠释了什么叫“降维打击”👊✂️ 表面低调沉稳可人家实际上是“左青龙右白虎”。
和看梅艳芳的感觉一样，再多演绎都比不上本人一帧。比不上他拿破锣嗓子唱一句。啊，老头儿要过生日了。
