After a botched bank robbery lands his vulnerable younger brother in prison, small-time hustler Constantine (Robert Pattinson) is plunged into the buzzing labyrinth of New York’s underworld in an increasingly desperate attempt to free the only family he has.
White-hot indie directors, The Safdie Brothers (Heaven Knows What, Daddy Longlegs) return with this deliriously unpredictable thriller. With an award-winning score by Oneohtrix Point Never and breakout performances from Pattinson and Ben Safdie as his brother Nick, Good Time recalls the grit and urgency of ‘70s New Hollywood films such as Taxi Driver, Mean Streets and Dog Day Afternoon.
