Mikey Saber (Simon Rex) is back home in small-town Texas after burning bridges and flaming out all over Los Angeles. A hustler, operator, and charismatic con man, Mikey quickly learns that no one wants him back. When he meets a teenager working at the local donut shop, he sees his ticket back to the big-time in this darkly funny, live-wire film from acclaimed director Sean Baker
This is a bit slow burning and a lot of talk that is pretty pointless, as we’ve started to learn from A24 movies. These guys really know how to show you things you don’t really care about. Once the movie picks up, it’s a nice watch. Simon Rex plays awesomely the despicable Mikey Saber, while Suzanna Son is the perfect thirst trap for this movie. Two popcorns, because (like all damn indie fucking movies) it has an open ending, and this puts a fucking ban on whatever indie movie gets out.
Another recommendation from Neil on the guestbook, this one is … interesting, for lack of a better word.
