An average movie

Since I have a weak spot for Richard Linklater, I definitely had to check this flick. Eventually, it was a fun watch but it is not one of his best directing effort. It's too bad since the whole thing actually had some potential.

Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 90โ€™s (1884 movies items)

" The Newton Boys is a 1998 American crime film co-written and directed by Richard Linklater. It is based on the true story of the Newton Gang, a family of bank robbers from Uvalde, Texas. The film stars Matthew McConaughey, who was actually born in Uvalde, Skeet Ulrich, Ethan Hawke, Vincent D'Onofrio, and Dwight Yoakam. It was filmed throughout Texas including the towns of Bertram, Austin, Bartlett, New Braunfels, and San Antonio. It became more of cult classic, after the fact years later."

"Re-watch - April 26th Linklater double feature After Boyhood ended I decided to finally revisit The Newton Boys which I haven't seen since it was in theatres. And my rating still stands after all these years. It's not a great film, especially among Linklater's works, but it never aspires to be either. It's based off of real events though, and never ceases to be entertaining. I'm rather surprised by how disliked it seems to be in general (look at the difference between its ratings & Boyhood's), "
