Still a nice revenge film, the beginning is scary and the ending is a happy ending.

In my eyes the actor was not bad.

Whitaker was also good in his role.

3.5 stars

Great movie!

Despite only being 92 minutes long, the film has the peace and time to tell the story, which is nice.

A "normal" film. No muscle-bound and exaggerated action in a nice, somewhat "old-fashioned" atmosphere.

A completely normal man, wearing normal clothes (the entire cast, by the way), a man who also really shows emotions about the events, a telephone with a wire attached to it and still smoking heavily on screen.

Sufficient tension, some action, a wonderfully prepared alibi and a (small) plot twist.

Irons is a good and credible actor and Whitaker has so much charisma that he is always top, even now in a smaller role.

Priestley had nothing to add, neither positive nor negative.

If you like today's movies where everything has to move fast and every minute is action packed, skip this one.

If you like a quiet crime/thriller/drama and you can appreciate acting performances and small dialogues, this is worth watching.

7.5

3.5*
