Review of Child 44 (2015) by Djnicey — 17 Apr 2015

This film is another example of why I ignore critic scores and make my own mind up about the films I go to see.

I think the critics must have been watching a different film to me, it was very well acted, has great cinematography, is an interesting story and gives you a dramatised insight into how life might have been in Russia after WW2. I thought the first 10 minutes weren't a very good introduction to the plot and it did slow in places, and was particularly brutal in a few scenes, but was very watchable, interesting, and definately worth seeing.
