Netflix will literally greenlight anything. _The Last Days of American Crime_ is aggressively boring, this two and a half hours long torture is a convoluted mess with absolutely no redeeming quality whatsoever. It is obvious the director was trying really hard to make a slick, stylized movie, but it all came off really flat.

The concept - signal broadcast by the American government will wipe out the ability to commit any and all criminal activity - is an interesting one, but there's nothing done with it. Instead, a father and son yell and argue over the son having sex with the stepmother before he kills the father. This scene will become one of those scenes people show others and blow their minds it is from a mainstream movie.
All characters are stereotypes. You want to know more about them? Well, too bad, because despite the seemingly endless runtime, we get pretty much the bare minimum. The acting is mediocre and unconvincing throughout. Edgar Ramírez is supposed to be in an Irish gang but has Spanish accent. He and his brother didn't share the same accent though. Michael Pitt is trying way too hard to be Al Pacino, and Anna Brewster was flat-out wooden as Shelby Dupree.

The movie is supposed to take place in USA, but almost none of the actors are American and it's very obvious that it wasn't shot in the states. I can't be the only one rolling their eyes when watching South African actors force the American accent.
