Steven Soderbergh is tied with Lynch, PTA and the Coens as my favorite living director. And I can confidently say that this is one of, and I may be speaking too soon here but, perhaps his greatest film yet. I was utterly enthralled the entire way through. And that’s what Soderbergh does so best, taking minimal sometimes even not that interesting material, and elevating it to new heights with his impeccable directing, shooting and editing.

Netflix MUST push for Delroy in the best leading actor…
