a little much spent on the development of characters perhaps, which is a bit folksy, though it does add a lot of depth to their eventual demise. of which to note is harrowing - the only action scene featured is three lines of australian men getting gunned down instantly.

It's a bit too conventional, but oh man, the friendship of those two guys feels real as fuck and the visuals are terrific. There isn't one moment of fat here. And of course the ending made me shed manly tears.
