From the opening scenes of <em>Bad Company<\/em>, it&#8217;s clear that Benton is aiming here for a similarly &#8220;revisionist&#8221; view of America &#8212; one in which criminals aren&#8217;t always gun-toting villains dressed in black, and the difference between right and wrong is rarely clear. After all, the film&#8217;s likable protagonist (Brown) is a draft dodger, running away from his legal duty as an American citizen, and abetted in doing so by his ultra-Christian (!) parents, who are so distressed by the loss of their only other son to the war that they&#8217;ve adopted an alternative code of ethics. <\/p>\n<p>At heart, <em>Bad Company<\/em> is a coming-of-age tale, with Drew (Brown) forced to confront his own values while under the influence of a charismatic leader (Bridges). What&#8217;s particularly fascinating is how readily Drew resists corruption, instead using his impressive wiles to stay autonomous despite nominally joining Bridges&#8217; gang. To this end, the movie&#8217;s final controversial shot doesn&#8217;t quite ring true, but the entire journey until then &#8212; particularly thanks to the noteworthy performances by both Bridges and Brown, and Gordon Willis&#8217;s luminous cinematography &#8212; is well worth taking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Barry Brown as Drew<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Brown-Firelight.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Brown-Firelight.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-56139\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Brown-Firelight.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Brown-Firelight-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Brown-Firelight-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Brown-Firelight-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Brown-Firelight-480x270.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Jeff Bridges as Jake<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Bridges.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Bridges.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-56138\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Bridges.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Bridges-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Bridges-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Bridges-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Bridges-480x270.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>The fascinating opening sequence, as Union paddy wagons round up Civil War &#8220;deserters&#8221;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Paddy-Wagons.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Paddy-Wagons.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-56134\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Paddy-Wagons.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Paddy-Wagons-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Paddy-Wagons-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Paddy-Wagons-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Paddy-Wagons-480x270.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>The disturbing scene in which a settler prostitutes his willing wife<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Prostitute.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Prostitute.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-56135\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Prostitute.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Prostitute-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Prostitute-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Prostitute-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Prostitute-480x270.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Gordon Willis&#8217;s expansive cinematography<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Cinematography.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Cinematography.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"853\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-56140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Cinematography.png 853w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Cinematography-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Cinematography-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Cinematography-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Bad-Company-Cinematography-480x270.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 853px) 100vw, 853px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Many well-observed details &#8212;
