Weak Sauce
A brutal and at times, beautifully shot vigilante flick that doesn't pull any punches but just doesn't quite stick the landing. Recommended.
Very quiet dialogue. Interesting plot with dark themes.
incredibly quiet and eneventful
A film where the violence is often shown off camera or at a distance, with the focus being on the aftermath, rather than the act. Phoenix nails the trauma of PTSD, stalking around with an intimidating physical bulk. I loved the music, and of course it's by Jonny Greenwood. Great movie.
