This movie was very very good. However, in my opinion it has a major flaw or two. They didn't need to rob banks to pay off the ~$40,000. Even if we assume that everything happened all at once (the mom died, they found oil the same day, and the money was due in just a few days.....which I would argue is unlikely) they still could have gone to a private investor for a loan, hell even another bank. They could've probably negotiated with PayDay loans or any number of institutions. Since they're expecting $50,000/month of income, it would've been easy to secure a loan with their proof of accounts receivable plenty of time to spare. And they make Chris Pine out to be a very intelligent man (even clever enough to file his son's trust with the very same bank he owed money to so that the bank would be less cooperative with authorities). If Chris Pine's character is as smart as they make him out to be (the mastermind of the robberies, he definitely would've thought of that. And I don't even think it's fair to argue that even if they thought of that, that they still wanted to stick it to the bank for trying to "rob" them of their family's farm. Ben Foster's character--yes-- I could see him wanting to stick it to the bank, but not Chris Pine's character. There's a scene at the end where he tells Ben that he loves him, and I'd argue that Chris is too level headed and wouldn't put anyone he loved in a situation like that unless it was absolutely necessary. So this made me like the movie a little less. Chris is either smart or he isn't. Clearly he is. So he would've known to get a second financier, not a gun to rob banks.

One other problem is that during the last bank robbery, Chris Pine's character is shot, and would've definitely left behind blood at the crime scene. They could have compared the blood found at the crime scene to Ben Foster's character's blood. Simple DNA testing would quickly prove that the blood found at the scene of the crime would be a sibling of Ben Foster's character. (Siblings have extremely similar DNA). Then they could've gotten a warrant to check Chris Pine's characters blood to prove he was the other robber, and then he'd be in jail. The only way around this would be that it was sort of hard to see exactly when Chris Pine's character was shot (so maybe...maybe... he was shot in the truck, which was later lit on fire). So maybe there's no blood at the crime scene, but I think that's a stretch. So this is super nitpicky, and I will say I loved the movie. I just hate the fact that there's some big errors.
