Their hunting trip takes them to a small village on troubled times held up and led by Logan ( Tony Curran in a great performance). Vaughn, who has fiance and baby on the way, and Marcus, a businessman with a cocaine habit, are old boarding schoolmates that have the air of friends that can pick up where they left off even after time apart. Palmer’s screenplay deftly sets up the relationship of the pair in the breezy first act of the film. The film, which is director Matt Palmer’s feature debut, is methodical and precise in its plot as two friends, Vaughn ( Jack Lowden-last seen in Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk-is brilliant here) and Marcus ( Martin McCann), go on a hunting trip far into the Scottish Highlands. The movie is literally closing in on the main characters. The shots get tighter and lighting gets darker. The shots are beautiful but foreboding and isolating.
Calibre is a lean and oppressively dark thriller set in the Scottish Highlands that announces Matt Palmer as an exciting new filmmaker and Jack Lowden as a starĬalibre at the beginning is interspersed with sweeping, silent shots of the Scottish Highlands.
