Dead Man Down by Niels Arden Oplev, 2013 (R)
with Colin Farrell (In Bruges, Total Recall), Noomi Rapace (Prometheus, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows), Terrence Howard (The Princess and the Frog), Dominic Cooper, Isabelle Huppert (Ma Mere, White Material, The Piano Teacher, Amour), Luis Da Silva Jr., Stu Bennett, Franky G. (The Italian Job), Declan Mulvey, John Cenatiempo, Roy James Wilson
From the director of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (Män som hatar kvinnor)
Colin Farrell and Noomi Rapace star as two strangers, irresistibly drawn to each other, whose mutual desire for revenge unravels in an escalating trail of violence.
Besides the romantic aspect which is not really convincing, the story is quite interesting, dark, dynamic, with unexpected twists and turns, twist and turns (again reminded me of Payback)... I have more and more problems believing Noomi Rapace as a feminine person, her sex-appeal is below zero... An interesting note is the character of the mother, Isabelle Huppert, as her ordinary characters, a "little" off and so french, how not to love her!
