A brilliant performance from Michael Shannon adds to a relatively slim storyline about a happily married man haunted by hallucinations of an impending apocalyptic storm and the effect it has on all those around him. A tad long at just under 2 hours and it does suffer with pacing problems at times but it was definitely worth a watch and once again proves that you don't need star names or big budgets to make intelligent and well constructed films.
I felt Shannon deserved an Oscar nom for that performance. The scene during the community dinner was amazing.
