With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- One for anyone who likes watching someone settle a score and anyone who likes their action precise. A revenge story, so expect the pressure to build to a reckoning. A good follow-up to Scarface. Lean and efficient, like its main character.
- The mood
- Dark and gritty.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 32 min.
- What might put you off
- Rated R: expect violence and drug use.
- Not for anyone who finds explosions tiring.
A young man takes over as the head of a crack dealing outfit after his brother, the gang's leader, is murdered.
