The latest genre exercise from British cult filmmaker Ben Wheatley drops several stars (Brie Larson, Armie Hammer), almost-stars (Sharlto Copley, Cillian Murphy), and character actors (Michael Smiley, Noah Taylor) into a single location for a feature-length shoot-out. Staff critics A.A. Dowd and Ignatiy Vishnevetsky have retreated to their own single location to discuss Free Fire, a fitfully fun encore to Wheatley’s superior High-Rise.
