SPOILER ALERT
A southern revenge thriller that's really bad. In fact it's a struggle to find anything redeeming about this pile of trash even with the presence of Robert De Niro and John Malkovich, I'm struggling to believe they signed up for this so perhaps the script started out a lot better.....we'll never know. Shelby (Jack Huston) and Ruby (Willa Fitzgerald) are lovers and heroin addicts who decide to get clean when Shelby proposes. Her family is delighted including her brother in law (Malkovich). But when Ruby relapses and overdoses Shelby goes on the rampage hunting down the local drug hierarchy. De Niro is the cop on his tail who is given some inner demons of his own presumably so he can actually do a bit of acting in the film. The action is muted and often carried out while some daft song on the soundtrack drowns out the gunfire. Malkovich, as if you didn't already guess, has a bigger part to play in the denouement. None of this is particularly original and it drags itself to the finish line after lengthy and dull romance scenes in the first half just in case you don't get how much in love the starry eyed junkies actually are. You can avoid this one. Known as Savage Salvation in other countries including the US - again for reasons unknown.
Can't watch this...NO SUBTITLES! Signature - one of the cheapskate outfits, can't be bothered to make subtitles...
Yes, had no sub titles and was woolly and lovey for the first hour, but when it can going there was a nice violent ending.
Enjoyed it so much I left a review.
