“Shimmer Lake” (*1/2 out of four) was a dreary Netflix story about a small-town sheriff (Benjamin Walker) investigating three criminals and a bank heist that they were involved in which went horribly awry. Film is told in reverse but it hardly matters since characters are unlikeable and story is uninvolving and not worth caring about; after a while, it drowns in it’s own unpleasantness. Film doesn’t end so much as stop, if you make it that far. Highly reminiscent of the Coen Bros. (“Blood Simple”, “Fargo”) but severely lacking their grandeur and style.
