I saw this last night...and it was absolutely one of the best filmic surprises of the year for me!

The cast was spot on! Ryan Phillippe's percolating frustrations was perfectly pitched as an FBI agent and Tom Pelphrey was a fearlessly likable con-man. You're rooting for them both at times, knowing they can't both win - but their performances made you feel for them both and want more of it. The entire supporting cast did a stellar job with their roles to improve the relationship between the viewer and the central characters, but not overpower the main story. I had never heard of the story of Jason Derek Brown before and didn't know much of Tom Pelphrey (but now I have to see him on Ozark!),but this is a solid feature from a first-time director!
