Jack, an Alaskan ex patriot, returns to his Fairbanks home following the death of his wife. He is full of anger, guilt and depression. His reclusive lifestyle is challenged when he meets a graduate student who is investigating the affects of the mining operations on a local water source. The film was shot on location in Fairbanks. The cinematography is beautiful and genuine. There is nothing fake or stereotypical about the portrayal of the subarctic summer and lifestyle. Filmed during in mid-June during the longest day of the year, the cinematographer and the director make excellent use of the midnight sun and the seasonal beauty unique to this part of the world. For this Fairbanksan, it was refreshing to see a film where Interior Alaska is portrayed with such integrity. Daniel Ponickly, who stars as Jack delivers a good performance as the widower who is lost in his grief. Ponickly also wrote the screenplay. This is the second full length feature film for director Zoe Quist. Her first film, Raw Cut, a thriller was also filmed in a panoramic environment -Dubois, WY- she made excellent use of the natural beauty of the environment. Through these two different stories, Quist proved her directing talent and ability. Newcomer Carrie Baker, and veteran Mischa Barton give very good performances. I would have liked to see more of Barton. Syd Wilder, is very convincing as the waitress with a heart of gold and a body for sin as are very convincing in their bad boy roles Jonathan Bennett and Levi Ben-Israel. Billy Zane is well cast as a UAF School of Geophysics professor, Toly Ramirez wrote the score for Mining for Ruby, as he did the haunting music for Raw Cut. The length of the film is 95 minutes and this writer found them to be a very enjoyable way to rediscover his home town.

BD:2022.7.12 , 这部电影太合我的胃口了。气氛，故事，配乐歌曲........《电影手册》2021年十佳片单 https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/KHXu03_aqzOfikew3vbPAQ； 保罗·约瑟夫·施拉德出生于1946年7月22日，是美国著名的剧作家、电影导演、电影评论家，最为人们称道的是他的剧本，其中最有名的是他和马丁·斯科赛斯合作的《出租车司机》和《愤怒的公牛》。
施来德拍的还是很稳，Bill这个有着不光彩过去但是急切想洗心革面的人物塑造的很成功，人物性格习惯设置合理，细节全部到位。虽然是赌场为背景，但是完全跟赌博没关系，赌博完全服务于人物塑造。片子整体有一种七八十年代电影的老派沉稳，但是永不过时的feel。PS，Oscar的屁股也太翘太好看了吧。
oscar的颜真对胃口啊，帮我撑着看完……
+0.5。自己都救不活的时候就别想去救别人了…（有联想到布列松
不要被片名骗了，只是个复仇的故事，还是为别人复仇的故事。
没有上一部《第一归正会》好看 施拉德真的一直在重复布列松加陀思妥啊 赌博跟复仇绑在一起感觉脸不到一块儿
还算不错，就是最后的结局有点意外，报个仇还把自己搭进去了，不是应该潇洒离去，逍遥法外的吗？
偶尔的镜头非常漂亮，长时间的情节让我无法看进去。如同第一归正会大家都说好我却完全感受不到。
充满装腔作势的台词和戏码，三十分钟后就继续不下去了
是导演很私人很纯粹的电影，大赞极简不浮夸不炫技的摄影，表达欲即便被主观镜头牢牢框住也要溢出屏幕了。where's oscar's oscar anyway
片尾曲有后劲，但全片里太多本该用来建设人物动机但用在闲聊上的无效镜头，属于那种自己说了算型的编导，可以删的东西太多，可以加的东西也太多；话说看了十五分钟，意境营造手法上就感觉像极了《出租车司机》，上来一看果然是相同的编剧。
如果最后算总账的那场戏略去，给观众一个想象空间，我会给多一星。【观影史 211202】
保羅許瑞德。Oscar Isaac。好看。
基调和质感很不错 犯罪惊悚这个类型并不少见 人物很立体矛盾很合理 但这些优点随着剧情的推进慢慢的不见了 故事开始变得夸张浮躁 甚至在赌场中的镜头和气氛也变得很诡异男女感情戏也是没有任何作用 又是浪费脚本演员的典范
从头喊到尾的usa，最后监狱成为归宿，一边反思一边讽刺，像是没有力气了。
真的是完全靠奥斯卡的个人魅力撑起来的一部电影，且他本人还有点面瘫在这里。鱼眼镜头是为数不多的亮点，但也仅限于此。玩牌的部分和主线反战的结合也不是非常紧密，配乐和空镜更是到了滥用的程度…
看完唱起那首歌：万万没想到，万万没想到啊~
仍能看到些美国电影的旧日荣光，当然不觉得足以和Taxi Driver相提并论，详细不展开了。期待施拉德还会与斯科塞斯合体搞创作，不是老马挂个制片名头的这种。
