History of Violence, A

Viewed in
2003

Premise
A small town hero is confronted by the mob about his past.

Who should watch
Fans of Viggo Mortensen? Those who like good acting and aren't afraid of realistic violence.

Thoughts
Very well acted film. I just wished it dealt more about the emotional implications instead of having everything end violently. The director did not want to glorify violence, and based on the realistic gore, he succeeded.

What I would change
Had more emotional elements to the story.
