Michael Shannon is magnetic as Rick Carver, a reptilian real estate broker who specializes in home foreclosure. Andrew Garfield plays one of his many victims, a hardworking tradesman who finds himself evicted from his home, only for Carver to offer him a job doing unto others what’s just been done to him. Writer/director Ramin Bahrani’s (MAN PUSH CART, CHOP SHOP, GOODBYE SOLO) gripping social drama pulses with high-stakes suspense, as Garfield goes for broke in an effort to win back his home. DIR/SCR/PROD Ramin Bahrani; SCR Amir Naderi; PROD Ashok Amritraj, Justin Nappi, Kevin Turen. U.S., 2015, color, 112 min, DCP. RATED R
