    In this special edition of The Cinematic Schematic, Caleb Masters provides his instant reaction to How to Make a Killing, starring Glen Powell as a blue-collar guy determined to inherit a multi-billion-dollar fortune by knocking out every other family member in line.

    Writer/director John Patton Ford’s sophomore directorial outing is a dark comedy framed as a morality play akin to crime classics like Goodfellas, with touches of American Psycho.

    How to Make a Killing opens in theaters on Friday, Feb. 20th.
