July 3:5:00 pm, 7:10 pmJuly 4:5:00 pm, 7:10 pmAt one point in this character-led drama, the protagonist is described as ‘Rain Man’ because he has a disability that is halfway to a superpower. Given that Dustin Hoffman is in a supporting role, it’s a distracting nod, but not inaccurate. Like Marvel’s Daredevil, piano tuner Nikki White (Leo Woodall) has exceptionally sensitive hearing, which has stymied his hopes of a career as a professional musician but comes in really handy for some off-the-books safecracking work. But can he maintain the criminal side hustle in the long term or will conscience, or circumstances, bring him down? … This is certainly Woodall’s best big-screen role to date and possibly his best full stop; he demonstrates real movie-star quality and holds the screen without a word for long stretches.
“…the film gives a lovely late-career showcase to Dustin Hoffman. The mix of genre elements is a delight, and the jazzy score, fast pace, and strong performances make much of the film sing.“–RogerEbert.com
