Späte Wut

The human drama is powerful and poignant, as bereaved José (Antonio de la Torre) roams around a shady Madrid neighbourhood looking to avenge his wife and father. First-time director Raúl Arévalo is a good storyteller and is well helped by solid performances from de la Torre, Luis Callejo, Ruth Diaz and Manolo Solo, but the film hasn't got any moral insights or redemption to offer. It's too preoccupied with its own mission. The story is a runaway train destined to crash, and so when it crashes ... it simply crashes. The English title is The Fury of a Patient Man, which largely describes the plot.

"The Fury of a Patient Man" is a Drama - Thriller movie in which we watch a man meeting a hard-working single mother and keeping a lot of secrets regarding his identity and the reason behind his approach.

I liked this movie very much because it had an interesting plot, consisted of plenty of mystery and some plot twists that made it even more interesting. The direction which was made by Raúl Arévalo was very good and he created a feeling of fear since it had plenty of suspense and his approach was unpredictable. The interpretation of Antonio de la Torre who played as Jose was simply outstanding and he made the difference on this movie. Some other interpretations that need to be mentioned were Ruth Díaz's who played as Ana and Luis Callejo's who played as Curro. Finally, I have to say that "The Fury of a Patient Man" is a nice, interesting movie and I recommend everyone to watch it.

Better than i expected. This is a good crime drama movie. Not much action, shootings, killings, this is more of a drama than anything else. But still, it's intense and gripping at times, especially during the second half. Also clever and realistic, characters are well written, actors are great. It's a serious movie, kinda bleak and sad. I empathised with those characters.

It requires your attention at first, it's not difficult to follow but it's not that easy either. Slow to start, but as i said, second half is intense, and it gets more intense as it progress. Strong ending even though it's a bit abrupt.

There are so many good things to talk about in this movie. First of all, it starts out very strong and grabs you right off the bat. Then I really liked the occasional behind the shoulder camera work which gives an intimate and unnerving feeling but it's not overly done where it becomes exhausting. The look and feel of the movie fits so well to the locations and overall intention. I loved the progresiveness of the film which tells the main character's story and purpose in two very different halves. Every character is very carefully designed and has a meaningful and interesting presence.

It's the revenge story of a quiet but determined guy.

As in Blue Ruin. If you've seen that, you know what I mean by that. If not let me break it down. If you've seen the trailer you know what this is about. A man seeking revenge to those who have done wrong by him (his loved ones to be more truthful). And while this is down and dirty, it also is very real. It does not shy away from violence, but it does not stylize it either.

It does not cherish in it, it will not make you feel happy or excited, it just does. And this stuff is not for everyone. If you want your thriller to be more entertaining, than you should look elsewhere. If you like slow cooking and moving thrillers, that are more about character and their journey, this is the one to seek out ... it takes you places
