Hillcoat makes a foray into Virginia's Prohibition-era moonshine country. But the adaptation (by Hillcoat compadre Nick Cave) is a hokey piece of pop history that wearyingly insists upon its own mythos like a comic-book blockbuster.

This fact-based drama succeeds because of its great cast and its strong story of loyalty and brotherhood.

The center of narrative gravity is hard to locate; for whom are we rooting, and does anything really ripple outward from this nasty local fight?

There's something at the movie's heart that remains flimsy and inauthentic, a kid in his older brother's ill-fitting shoes.
