Details: Amazon.ca Few things are more satisfying than an effective crime thriller, and The Square is very, very effective. In this sinewy Australian flick, hapless construction overseer Raymond (David Roberts)--eager to hold on to his illicit lover Carla (Claire van der Boom)--starts with a little graft, which turns into a little arson and theft, which turns into murder, blackmail, and more murder. The plot rockets along, driven by the ruthless economy of director Nash Edgerton (a former stuntman who demonstrates a deep understanding of how to orchestrate danger) and screenwriter-actor Joel Edgerton (who plays a sympathetic firebug). Most modern attempts at film noir try to get the look of those classic low-budget crime flicks but have no idea what the genre is about; The Square could care less about shadows and cigarette smoke, but this movie--rife with desperation, greed, and lust--understands noir from the inside out. The whole cast is excellent, the editing swift, the action jolting. This is the best thriller since Blood Simple. Not to be missed. --Bret Fetzer
