"Hell or High Water resurrects the power of western mayhem done right."
Indiewire
"Scottish director David Mackenzie employs the keen eye of an outsider to evoke this very particular world. The film is firmly planted in reality, down to the smallest detail."
The Australian
"This sharply plotted thriller is a triumph for both director David Mackenzie and writer Taylor Sheridan."
