Ben Affleck proves his directorial chops with this debut, a smartly-written and executed crime film with a stellar cast. The film works hard to create a moody and dark atmosphere that fits the thematic material. The standout is probably Amy Ryan in a chameleon performance as a scummy drug addict, but the entire cast impresses.
