A Most Violent Year is rarely violent, takes place over the course of a month, and mostly consists of a guy trying to get a loan. J.C. Chandor’s new film may pretend at being a statement on The American Dream, but it’s a painfully repetitive slog mired in phony aspirations of being a crime drama that comments on how hard it is to get ahead in this country without playing a little dirty.
