Review of Eastern Promises (2007) by Filius S — 08 Dec 2015
There were some really good movies coming out from about 2004-2010. Some great acting was being done in some of these films. One of the films in the gangster genre that not too many people seem to be all that familiar with is Eastern Promises.
What do most people know Viggo for? Lord of the Rings obviously, he is the king after all. But behind that big budget blockbuster of a trilogy and role for him is one of the great actors of our time. He showcases all his worth in Eastern Promises.
Not many movies if any that I know of have been made about the true Russian mafia. Eastern Promises goes deep into the culture of this group. This movie is a great gangster movie and then some. Showcasing the mentality of these criminals and the brutal violence that surrounds them.
A fantastic movie.
