To be honest, I actually had no idea what this movie was about but since I have always been a big fan of Joaquin Phoenix, I was quite eager to check it out. Eventually, since I had to keep guessing what the hell was going on at least during the first half, it turned out to be quite fascinating but also slightly frustrating at the same time. At last, when it became pretty obvious what the story was... read more

No way it is this times Taxi Driver as someboy said, but Phoenix is convincing in whatever he does being violent and tender a la fois. His mama stuff is ok...

"23.4.2020, YLE Areena Muun muassa Drivestä ja Taksikuskista ammentava, tiivis ja melko intensiivinen trilleri, joka alkaa suhteellisen lungisti, mutta hyppää yllättäen kakkosvaihteelta kutoselle noin sekunnissa. Oon vasta hiljattain ymmärtänyt, että Joaquin Phoenix on oikeasti aika poikkeuksellisen hyvä, asialleen omistautunut näyttelijä. Jonny Greenwoodin musat ja yleinen äänisuunnittelu muutenkin on erityisen kohdillansa."

"Taksikuskiinhan tätä on verrattu, ja osittain tunnistan mielleyhtymät. Myönnetään, että odotin vähän larumpaakin menoa, mutta diggailin tunnelmasta yllättävän paljon. Soundtrack oli jeesh."

"11.2. Joaquin Phoenix esittää Lynne Ramsayn elokuvassa pahasti traumatisoitunutta palkkatappajaa, joka päästelee päiviltä näennäisen niljakkaita paskiaisia. Omassa elämässä mikään ei tunnu olevan kunnossa. Eräällä keikalla mennään vähän liian syvälle isokenkäisten poliitikkojen pedofiliarinkiin. Läheisten kuolemat aiheuttavat kostonjanoa, mutta tärkeintä tuntuu olevan kosmisen tasapainon saavuttaminen pahoille ihmisille kostamalla. Samalla elämältä on pudota pohja, k"

"24.8. Viaplay Listaan tähän hyviä asioita tästä elokuvasta: - masentava - ahdistava - audiovisuaalinen tyyli miellytti minua - kesto oli optimaalinen, eli alle 90 minuuttia Voisin katsoa useamminkin tällaisia elokuvia."
