Nebraska is not trying to be everything to everyone, and that focus is exactly what makes it work. The set pieces are impressive, but it is the story underneath them that gives Nebraska its staying power. An aging, booze-addled father takes a trip from Montana to Nebraska with his estranged son in order to claim what he believes to be a million-dollar sweepstakes prize. Bruce Dern and Will Forte lead a cast that earns every set piece rather than just filling it. It was released in 2013. What separates Nebraska from disposable action entertainment is character work that survives the explosions. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

For viewers who want their entertainment to move fast and not waste a scene, Nebraska respects your time. It rewards viewers regardless of what else is in their watch history. A contained runtime means every scene is doing real work. Bruce Dern anchors the chaos with real screen presence. Every set piece here is doing more than one job at once.
