In the film, there is a scene where the main character sleeps with a seduced woman, and after a passionate night, they get up and continue with their distant behavior and address each other formally. Similarly cold and distant is the entire film, which could have been much more engaging and passionate. Of course, the theme of losing a child and seeking revenge for the committed act works, but it didn't captivate me, and I can imagine seeing a completely different version of the story. These characters are too forcefully polarized. The culprit is too much of a textbook monster, and a somewhat different psychology and more complicated decision-making would only benefit this film. Overall impression: 60%.
