Reviews

I actually didn't mind it. Now, I'm not an expert movie reviewer, but given all the negative comments here, I had to put my opinion forward. Sometimes, all I want is a slow moving story of revenge, it doesn't always need to be a blockbuster with Oscar winning performances. Yes, Clint Eastwood and Sergio Leone were masters of the genre, so what?! I enjoyed the sombre mood of this flick, the scenery, the sets, the faces of the actors and the tried and true premise of the plot. A simple vessel for some old style vengeance. The fight scenes are good, not ridiculous like every Jason Statham movie. A simple movie for simple folks.

I've never written a review in my life, but I had to voice my frustration. This is a really atmospheric movie, with likeable characters and a fair amount of suspense. It's definitely worth watching...BUT...what drove me crazy was the ridiculous camera movement. My guess is, in an attempt to be arty and perhaps to give a first person perspective of the terror of being alone and hunted in the woods, the camera shakes and sweeps all over the place. Annoying and pointless!! Movie makers, PLEASE stop doing this!
