Benutzerrezensionen

Vega is a Polish movie creator who has established his recognizable style. It resembles dark bloody crime stories from France rather than from any other countries.

The quality of photography and editing is always very good from Vega. This one does not disappoints either. It is a dark, grim police story or rather crime story initially told by a gifted bomber and kidnapper how he faced a cop who brought him down.

Vega enjoys inserting some important moments of modern Polish history into his movies. He does the same here.

All is told nicely smoothly in the sauce of some religious discovery made by the cop - Exodus book of Bible.

Good pace. Dark climate. Good acting.

I am glad that Polish movie creator produces such good quality movies.

At the time of this review, Pitbull: Exodus was rated 4.6 on IMDb. That's a gross injustice as this film was well-written, well-acted and exhibited excellent cinematography.

Among the many things I admired about Pitbull: Exodus was the sheer menace of the actor Przemyslaw Bluszcz brought to the film. In fact, it was the same menace he brought to another Polish crime thriller I recently saw, Colors of Evil: Red.

For years, my interest has been in Nordic noir with their flawed characters, bluish-gray cinematography, gloomy atmosphere, and the fact they don't shy away from presenting graphic violence, gore and nudity in their productions. It appears the Poles match them in their intensity, and Pitbull: Exodus is no exception.

Worth the viewing? I'd say so.

I went to view this at the Castleford Cineworld in Yorkshire, England ,UK.

On entry there was a fair amount of eastern Europeans and Polish entering the viewing and I can I certainly see why... The film was well scripted throughout with interesting deep characters. This flow of the film was good and it became more and more engaging throughout.

The acting was effortless and the characters were totally believable. The film gets better as it develops, it can be a little dark and solemn in parts but there is some small witty bits of humour. It has everything you want from a gangster film.

The cinematography is also well produced.

Highly recommended, I'd love to see a second film.

The movie keeps you engaged for the full length with twisted scenarios, that makes it really thrilling and it's worth watching. The games played by the bomber and the cop are really clever and the religion seems to help the law.

I recommend.
