Review of Dead Man Down (2013) by Timothy H — 24 Nov 2013
A criminal makes a major mistake, really major. This movie details the danger inherent in not double-checking your work.
Slow but not bad and culminates in a great action ending that's worth sticking around for and the film does not telegraph the ending. It was nice watching a movie when I haven't figured out the ending.
Performances were good, some almost great. Terence is chilling as the villain. Noomi Rapace is an unknown to me but she is a credible actress. Farrell and Rapace have good on screen chemistry.
All in all a more interesting film than I expected but it's better as a rental than theatrical release.
The title make sense if you stick around for the conclusion.
