Retribution

Worth a watch. It's dark and intriguing so kept me hooked as wanted find out what was going on/how it ended. Suspect it was made on a small budget, but looks good for it and sort of makes it grittier in a way. It's quite violent but no more than a lot of films these days! And the hitman character is really scary, but also kinda captivating in a weird way! The music used it really atmospheric. Would give it a solid 7/10 I reckon.

Definitely worth staying with. Although there isn't much character development in the conventional sense, Dan gradually shows himself to be driven by complex motives and I was at least satisfied with the outcome. Most of the characters are lowlifes who we are quite happy to see dispatched. The hit man, however, is very scary, although put in the shade by the usually civilised Guy Henry as.... well, you'll have to watch it. Very dark, very violent although not graphic. The sort of film which makes the viewer thankful for a humdrum existence. Quite disturbing, stays with you. Full marks to the team for pulling this off on a low budget. Outstanding photography.

Enjoyable viewing, Creates the right vibe from the get go, Unsettling and Dark

Actor are bad, stories is yet another "badass patriarch avenge a female". Its trying to be violent and provocative but its just really really really bad. i cannot understand the rating. It have a cheap feel, in a terrible way.

Here are good vengeance gritty UK movies if you like the genre: Dead Man Shoes (a real classic with great performances), "Ill sleep when Im dead", Harry Brown (ok, but overrated) and the excellent "The hit" (1984)

If you have run out of series options ... viewed all the Longmire, Bloodline, The Killing, etc., etc. then this is for you! I won't spoil it by telling on the series. Just to say that the acting and scripting is superb, the first episode wastes little time getting into the action and then ... yeah ... you're hooked ! Big Time. Great cliff hangers as well. This is what to watch if you're desperate to get past the animated stuff and so forth. It only just began so I can't say how it will play out but I am also using some discipline to prevent binging ... or overbinging if that's a word.
