Lawless

The back hills of Virginia during the prohibition, moonshine, white lightning, bootleggers, hillbillies, Chicago gangsters, crooked coppers, murder and mayhem – all with a pretty decent supposedly true story attached. If this sounds like your cup of tea, or hard cider, then this is a movie for you to rent. I enjoyed it! It was well done, nicely acted and filmed. The story revolves around three brothers, born in the back hills of Virginia. Their family has always lived just outside the law, and through the generations, they gained the reputation as being invincible. Of course, the Chicago gangsters want to move in on their territory, and laugh at the idea of such a powerful family. Never underestimate the power of family ties. I found the entire movie entertaining, and a few scenes excellent. The ending was also satisfactory. A decent story, well done.
