Story: Niels Arden Oplev, the acclaimed director of the original The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, makes his American theatrical debut with the new action thriller, DEAD MAN DOWN. Colin Farrell and Noomi Rapace star as two strangers who are irresistibly drawn to one another by their mutual desire for revenge. The film co-stars Academy Award (R) nominee Terrence Howard and Dominic Cooper, from a screenplay by J.H.Wyman (Fringe).Victor, a rising gangland player, has infiltrated the crime empire run by ruthless kingpin Alphonse, with the single purpose of making Alphonse pay for destroying his once happy life. As he meticulously orchestrates his vengeance from his high-rise home, Victor watches and is watched by Beatrice, a mysterious young woman who lives in the apartment across from his. On the surface a fragile woman-child, Beatrice seethes with a rage of her own. When she uncovers Victor's dark secrets, she threatens to expose him unless he helps her carry out her own campaign of retribution. Each fixated on avenging the past, they devise a violent and cathartic plan that could change their worlds forever.
Likes : This wasn't a bad film for Colin Farrell who plays Victor, a man on the edge for revenge for the death of his family, it really showed when he spoken about them you could serious feel the pain & anger, this is what makes Colin Farrell a list actor because he real throws him self in to this role. There is no measure of pain than losing someone you love special your family to a bunch of murdering gangster that what control of something. Noomi Rapace plays Beatrice a woman scared from a car crash from a drug man who only got 3 weeks for the drunk accident. She play this part real well, her part in this film was kind of one to mend victor heart & to make him see that he still alive & able to love again which was brilliantly portrayed in the film. Terrence Howard play the mob boss Alphonse who order the killing of victor family, he play this part pretty well, he had this nasty vicious cold heart pull the trigger without thinking type of guy which really show as well in this film. The whole storyline was clever because it use a concept like the punisher film destroy the enemy from with in which victor cleverly dose, im not usual one for thriller type films but this was a good thriller film with a good storyline & back story of revenge.
Dislikes : Tho this film was good the only think that kinds of lets it down is there is hardly any action scene to keep it entertaining it was a little to slow through the film, you find yourself slightly get board but it dose have its moment but it not bad for a revenge thriller.
Overall : don't expect an all action Thriller because its lack in action, good back story & concept, Not a bad thriller to watch.
Rating: 4.3 out of 5 for concept / 7.8 out of 10 for thriller concept / backstory
