It is ultimately the portrayal of a dysfunctional family and a character study of Tom Stall (Viggo Mortensen). A History of Violence may not have a plausible plotline or ending, but it does have the vibe of a horror movie in every scene.

The film also has a very scrappy feeling of an amature director during the shooting sequences, which it does not. Besides all the faults, A History of Violence did manage to conjure its subject to the highest degree and met the expectations.

Maybe if it wasn't so scrappy and choppy, the film would've been better.
