Three rebellious, bootlegging brothers find the elusive American Dream within their reach, and fight to maintain their grip as powerful urban gangsters reap the rewards of their hard work in this sprawling Great Depression-era crime drama from director John Hillcoat (The Road, The Proposition). At the height of Prohibition, ambitious country boy Jack Bondurant dreams of becoming "Public Enemy #1" while reaping all the benefits that go with the gangster lifestyle. By expanding his family's moonshining business, he plots to launch a vast criminal empire while winning the heart of beautiful Amish girl Bertha. With his older, intimidating brother Howard by his side, Jack has the brawn to get the job done, too. But they need a strong leader to guide them -- a responsibility that falls on their eldest sibling Forrest. Stoic and stalwart, Forrest is the kind of man who holds his cards close, and places a high value on character. Meanwhile, as the three siblings rise to power while battling treachery on both sides of the law, a mysterious woman named Maggie appears out of nowhere, prompting the thoughtful Forrest to question the true price of his outlaw ways. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

James G.

Excellent film, Tom Hardy's role as the quiet, controlled leader of the brothers is tremendous. Excellent supporting cast as well not to mention and ideal soundtrack that seem to depict the era perfectly. Must see!

    Saw this last night, and it was as good as I hoped it would be. I love this time period and the fact it was based on the true story of the Bondurant Brothers, moonshiners, made it interesting. The movie went beyond my expectations with the excellent acting, and attention to detail. A little violent of course, but mixed with love stories as well... Best movie about this subject matter I have seen.

    Definitely worth renting, Lawless has all of the compelling elements of fine drama, love story subplots, strong villains, characters with strengths and weaknesses and gritty storyline. The fact that it has roots in actual events and people also adds to the satisfaction of glimpsing into a not too distant era in our country's evolution, and provides a strong commentary about moral relativism

    very good movie, I especially liked Tom Hardy....between warrior and lawless i think He is a force to be admired for his poutiness almost like Brando. Guy was a good bad guy would like to have done him myself!
