The most negative review

I wasn't introduced to Jeremy Saulnier until _Green Room_, and though I do think that was most certainly a superior film, it's clear to me now as I work backwards through his filmography that the guy has always had a talent.
_Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go._
