Son of a Gun

...Alicia Vikander, channelling Eva Green...are given the character equivalent of thrift-store suits, and they model them like Loulou de la Falaise. They play the hell out of their roles and clearly have fun doing it.

...Ewan McGregor does his best to turn off the charm and project the quiet intensity that would justify his character’s reputation. He does a reasonably decent job...

An entry in the recent resurgence of Australian crime cinema, it covers familiar turf well, with McGregor in good form and tight direction from Julius Avery.

...silly but fun entertainment marred by slow patches, wonky writing and unempathetic characters.
