Depp is actually super menacing throughout this film b. The scenes of intimidation are more cold than the scenes of violence. He might be getting a Best Actor nom b.

But, my nigga Joel Edgerton will mos def be getting that Best Supporting Actor nom. He put his foot into his role as Agent Connolly b.

Jessie Plemmons aka Landry does great work here. As does Corey Stoll, Dakota Johnson and Peter Sarsgaard do incredible work in very minor roles. Benedict Cumberbatch's Boston accent was a bit cartoony but he did well with his small role as well.

Scott Cooper and his DP made this movie pop throughout and visually, it was always interesting. As a matter of fact this is Cooper's best film and it probably has to do with the fact that he didn't write it.

But yea will see how Awards Season goes as this could be a major player or a minor player depending on how strong the rest of the films are.
