VENGEANCE: A LOVE STORY (Video Release USA 2017)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì

Vengeance: A Love Story—like Dirty Harry with heart—fills itself with some very realistic acting by Anna Hutchinson and Talitha Eliana Bateman. While Nicolas Cage seems a little weak for his role as an avenger, that weakness works as he matter-of-factly takes care of a deadly situation. Graphic sex scenes move this film to a mature audience. The overall film? Worth watching. Watch for Deborah Kara Unger from The Way.
