Review of A Most Violent Year (2014) by Brent_Marchant — 20 Jan 2015
A suspenseful, thoughtful period piece crime drama with excellent performances by Jessica Chastain and Oscar Isaac. While some of its underlying themes aren't always as fully developed as they could be, this shortfall is compensated for by its intriguing, intertwined plot threads and its avoidance of a simplistic narrative.
One of the year's better and more underrated efforts.
