Review of Eastern Promises (2007) by Tonyb. — 29 May 2008
Superior to the somewhat overrated "A History of Violence," "Eastern Promises" successfully captures and depicts the nether world of London's Russian gangsters. Although Viggo Mortensen deserves the praise he has received for this film, one must not overlook the fine work done by the rest of the cast, notably Naomi Watts and Armin Mueller-Stahl.
I question having Mortensen shed it all in the brutal attempt on his life.
