Résumés(1)
Finestkind tells the story of two brothers (Ben Foster & Toby Wallace), raised in different worlds, who are reunited as adults over a fateful summer. Set against the backdrop of commercial fishing, the story takes on primal stakes when desperate circumstances force the brothers to strike a deal with a violent Boston crime gang. Along the way a young woman (Jenna Ortega) finds herself caught perilously in the middle. Sacrifices must be made and bonds between brothers, friends, lovers, and a father (Tommy Lee Jones) and his son are put to the ultimate test. (Paramount+)

Critiques (1)
A job with fishermen, family ties and some stolen drugs. Brian Helgeland used to be a guarantee of quality, but he hasn't been doing so well lately. This story about two stepbrothers, breaking the rules, and the price to pay has no traction. The first hour, which is purely about fishing + camaraderie/brotherhood with no substantial plot, could use a better driving force than the yowling Toby Wallace. The quirky dialogue and odd behaviour are realistic but quite boring. Then Tommy Lee Jones comes on the scene and saves the whole thing with his brooding fisherman who tosses in a bit of wisdom here and there and finally gives the film a satisfying point.
