Good Time

Good Time (2017) is a crime thriller from the Safdie brothers you can watch online on iFILM. Robert Pattinson stars as small-time crook Connie Nikas, in the performance that rebooted how critics saw him.

A bank robbery falls apart fast. Connie's younger brother Nick, who lives with a mental disability and is played by co-director Benny Safdie, gets picked up by police. Now Connie has a single night to spring him — no money, no real plan, just stubborn nerve. What follows is New York after dark: strangers' apartments, a shuttered amusement park, people he charms and burns through on the fly. Jennifer Jason Leigh and Barkhad Abdi turn up along the way.

Shot in jittery close-ups and sickly neon, it rides a pulsing synth score by Oneohtrix Point Never that won a prize at Cannes. The movie never excuses Connie or condemns him; it just sprints beside him until sunrise. Stream Good Time (2017) online on iFILM.
