Review of Blue Ruin (2014) by Foxgrove — 08 May 2014
A menacing tone permeates this small independent film as we follow an unlikely gun toting protagonist on his mission of revenge. The screenplay is laced with black humour and before its bloody conclusion provides more than a few twists and turns along the way.
It's all executed to heart pounding effect and there are some shockingly gruesome moments that elicit audible gasps. It does feel longer than its mere 90 minutes but, if it ultimately lacks greatness, it still ends up being a very accomplished thriller.
