Language: English/Russian/Turkish/Ukranian
A tale of divided loyalties, murder, deceit and
retribution, set in the dark underworld of a Russuian mafia family in
London. A long awaited return to what Cronenbery does best:
story telling.
Score: 70.83%
Some Members' Comments:
What a gripping story.
Bloody good.
Powerful and good acting.
A lot of 'B scores' commented "good story, but gruesome, too much violence, blood etc...."
Too many "****s".
Grisly and a bit contrived.
Plot barely credible and violence nauseating.
