My husband's review of the last film we watched.
Only God Forgives (2013)
Director:
Nicolas Winding Refn
Writer:
Nicolas Winding Refn
I do think if you edited down the film to the dialogue and violent scenes this film would last about twenty minutes. The film does capture pointless acts of violence leading to more pointless acts of violence both Julian, played by Ryan Gosling and Chang (Vithaya Pansringarm) have a very disjointed moral compass. Enter Crystal (Thomas) as the mother and you soon realize why her sons are messed up! Nicolas Winding Refn’s usage of mise-en-scene is certainly apparent between this film and previously Drive.
