Premise: “Described as a “neo-grindhouse” flick , Robert Pattinson will play Connie, a bank robber to tries to escape as a dragnet beings to draw closer and closer.”

From Elara: “centers on a bank robber and his mentally-handicapped brother’s flailing efforts to evade the dragnet closing in on them. Pattinson will star as Connie.”

From Memento Film: “A bank robber finds himself unable to evade those who are looking for him in the streets of New York.”

From Ad Vitam (France): “A bank robbery that goes wrong… Connie managed to escape, but his brother Nick isarrested. While Connie is trying to gather the bail to free her brother, another option is offered to him: make escape. Thus begins in the slums of New York City, a long night under adrenaline.

From Ascot-Elite (Cannes): “GOOD TIME After a botched bank robbery lands his younger brother in prison, Constantine Nikas (Robert Pattinson) embarks on a twisted odyssey through the city’s underworld in an increasingly desperate – and dangerous – attempt to get his brother out of jail. Over the course of one adrenalized night, Constantine finds himself on a mad descent into violence and mayhem as he races against the clock to save his brother and himself, knowing their lives hang in the balance.”
