There Are No Saints

Give it a watch if you like tim roth, he's a great actor and pulls this movie through ron perlman on the other hand is his usual cringy fake unbelievable tough guy, he ruins this movie.

Tim Roth is excellent but too under-used, i recognised the lead from Netflixs Narcos, i like Neal Mcdonut (but don't remember seeing brian cox), shannon sossaman used to be hot but not in this.. overall story is ok but not original, some scenes added for shock value but it is just a 90min turn brain off and watch if nothing else is on..

This is rough, tough, brutal, bloody, sadistic, disturbing, and also bringing some surprises, thanks to Paul Schrader - TAXI DRIVER screenwriter - the surprise being Ron Pearlman has only a very very little supporting appearance at the end. I expected him having the lead role. But who cares, it could have been played this lead character, by Jason Statham. Yes, this is not for the squeamish, not the sissies and it's a pretty good time waster. I don't now this main character but he's good, convincing. The story could be a bit too repetitive but again, that's a badass scheme. The ending is very surprising but could have been better.

Some reviewer has said Tim Roth pulls this movie through, but good as he is, Mr Roth is in it for about 3 minutes (I guess he was cast to entice viewers) But as an action drama bit silly, very violent and visceral, I don't consider my 90 minutes wasted. And Ron Perlman is only in for about three minutes. Found the soundtrack annoying and somewhat out of place, but if you like violent drama, good characters and a story, give it a go.

The other actors were great but Perlman plays the same part...a very fake over acted tough guy. He was more believable with the red costume on in hellboy when you couldn't see his face. A long fall from the good old days.
