Review of Vengeance Is Mine (1979) by Greg F — 31 Aug 2007
What a strance balance of tones Imamura favors. The movie is sold as a serial killer on the lam tale, but quickly grows tired of the conventions of a police hunt movie and becomes a strange, domestic dark comedy with a sympathetic overview of the murderer's life.
Perhaps not entirely satisfying a crime film, it achieves merit through other avenues.
