Review of A Walk Among the Tombstones (2014) by Ginak — 20 Sep 2014

I enjoyed this very well-made thriller, thanks to Liam Neeson, an excellent supporting cast, a very good, complex script (a real mystery), and also very good, clear direction. Complex and convincing, the film moved along without being overly brutal and sadistic.

There was just enough of the murders in close-up and mainly shown not in body parts but through frightened eyes that made this film work and raised it a cut (no pun intended) above the others in this genre.

This is a thriller that gives a real feeling of horror, without being too graphic, along with a genuine feeling of sadness and sympathy for Scudder, the main character, but also for the victims..
