At Any Price

About This Movie

The pacing shifts effectively between the intimate father-son dynamics and the mounting pressures from an investigation that threatens everything they've built. Zac Efron's performance as Dean offers a youthful contrast to Quaid's seasoned desperation. There's a rawness to the film's atmosphere, accentuated by its practical effects and location shooting that lend authenticity. It’s a layered narrative about legacy, dreams, and the moral compromises that come with them.
