Let Him Go

 

Let Him Go is a thriller set in 1961 Montana starring Kevin Costner and Diane Lane. They are George and Margaret Blackledge, an elderly couple, who will do whatever it takes to save their grandson and his mother from the clutches of her abusive husband and suspicious in-laws.

I thought that the sets, hair and costumes were perfect for the era. It takes you back immediately.

The casting of Kevin Costner and Diane Lane were a master class of talent. They had great chemistry and I liked their backstory. I just wish that there was stronger character development for the rest of the antagonists.

The plot was different and interesting but there were also some holes in the story that should have been filled with more detail to have a better understanding of the entire situation.

In the end this movies gives low budget vibes. It was okay for an at home movie but would not have been worth checking out in theaters
