Review of A History of Violence (2005)


A History of Violence

The Good:
I liked the story, it was engaging.
The acting was very good.
The shots and general cinematography was done well.
Another graphic novel to film adaptation.
The violence was disturbing and crisp.

The Bad:
Some of the characters were a little thin.
The script was a bit lacking at times in the way of character interaction.
I was left wanting resolutions to some of the issues in the film.
Some of it was slow.

Overall: A good movie. Not for the kiddies. Like a reverse Godfather, minus the awesome writing and intricate plot elements and the all-star cast... ok, so nothing like the Godfather, but still good.
