reviews. well, why not? i do like a vengeance movie and i like the two leads in this. what you get tho is really nothing like what the trailer suggests (i'm guessing it was made with a more, dare i say it, english language audience in mind). a great ensemble cast, well scripted and solid characterization plus they dodge the usual tropes in favour of something that touches on a host of other subjects. i read elsewhere that this shouldn't really work but it does. stupid, funny, touching and tragic all at the same time.
if that tweaks your twinky then check out the original version of the guilty (i think it's streaming on prime). a great wee pressure cooker of a low budget movie that's almost like watching a stage play. in contrast the american remake unfortunately just goes to show the paucity of imagination in far too many of the english language films that actually get made and aired.
