Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Brilliant and dark as it gets. An oxymoron to its name. But what a presentation of the genre itself which resonates each and every essence to its deepest core. Robert Pattinson, indeed showed his brilliance. It's a joyride , that breaks the conventional barrier of today's Hollywood movies.

The emphatic entrance of Robert Pattinson's character minutes into the movie signaled two things:1. The former Twilight actor is not messing around in an attempt to reinvent himself from the pretty boy typecast. Pattinson delivers the best performance of 2017 as the gritty anti-hero Connie, and you get the feeling this entrance will one day be remembered as the pivotal moment of his career.2. The title of this heist thriller is no misnomer. From this moment on, we are flung into an unrelenting adrenaline ride that hasn't felt so exhilarating since 2015's Fury Road.It's hard not to recall the late film critic Manny Farber's coined term "Termite Art" when describing the dramatic depth here. Farber argued that true glory of American cinema is not found in high-minded message pictures like To Kill a Mockingbird or Schindler's List, but rather in B-movies and genre pictures where the artistry is hidden within the entertainment. Good Time provides thorough entertainment throughout, but it also stays in your mind long past viewing, with little termites eating at you with questions regarding the American handling of penal system, poverty, privilege, and mental health. The overarching theme of the movie is destructive love, and above all begs the question, can you truly love someone despite not having the right kind of love to give them?

What to say about this movie? The only reason why I watched it is, to find a new Robert Pattinson without a shadow of his the most popular role in "Twilight". And I really did it. He has a good role in this movie, he did it very well. This is a good film for those who like action movies,but I'm not among those, so I waste almost two hours on nothing special, nothing which I didn't see a million times before.

Good Time is a movie about awful people doing awful things and you hope awful things happen to them. There are few redeeming characters in the movie and the ones that exist have awful things happen to them. At times their imbecility is humorous, but much of it is agonizing.It's a low budget spastic movie, but the story is basic: An incompetent bank robber tries to steal/con/borrow $10,000 to bail his brother out of jail over the course of a day/night. He makes a series of terrible decisions (both practically and morally) to come up with the money, and all the while you'll be hoping he gets what he deserves.That may be Good Times biggest strength; making a protagnoist so unlikable but still so human. You're not rooting for the guy, but he's not a caricature either. I knew nothing about Robert Pattison other than his infamous Twilight role, but he performs well here. This is a dark, dreary film bereft of light and hope. So I guess if you're into that, be my guest.
