Wednesday star Jenna Ortega's upcoming film Finestkind has opened to underwhelming reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.



The crime thriller from director Brian Helgehand tells the story of estranged brothers Tom (Ben Foster) and Charlie (Toby Wallace), who strike a deal with a Boston crime syndicate, endangering the lives of their father Ray (Tommy Lee Jones) and the mysterious Mabel (Ortega).



Premiered at Toronto International Film Festival last week, Finestkind has earned mostly mixed to negative reviews on review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, where it currently sits at a score of just 20% from ten reviews.

In the meantime, take a look at what critics had to say on the movie, whose cast also includes The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power's Ismael Cruz Córdova, Fear the Walking Dead's Aaron Stanford and The Sopranos' Tim Daly.


"This is one of those frustrating dramas wherein it feels like different cast members are making different movies. Foster's is a grounded character piece; everyone else is doing melodrama."
