Review of The Iceman (2012) by Joe P — 07 Oct 2013
A hard-edged instant classic. A powerful, razor-sharp and killer thriller that's filled with grit and energy. A vicious character study as well as an engaging drama that makes you fear and feel for this mesmerizing character that Shannon has brought to the screen.
Michael Shannon gives a tour de force performance, it rivals with the likes of Pacino and De Niro. Shannon is incredible to watch and see as he truly embodies this character and crafts a performance that is worthy of awards attention and truly crowns him as a star.
The entire cast give impressive performances. Winona Ryder is outstanding, her best performance in years. Ray Liotta is terrific. Chris Evans is excellent. Director, Ariel Vromen crafts a fearless, well-made and outstanding movie.
A darkly compelling and unforgettable film that you cant believe is based on a true story. It's truly ones of 2013's finest motion pictures. Movies of this caliber and raw intensity should not be missed and keeps you on the edge of your seat all the way to the end.
