Steven F. @SteveGotScored Feb 24 Kevin Bacons most brutal movie! See more Gabriel S @Sanarel Feb 6 Based on the homonimous novel by Brian Garfield, Death Sentence is a revenge thriller that starts strong, drives compelling momentum through powerful acting (mainly Kevin Bacon), and lacks a bit of coherence. The story follows Nich Hume trying to cope with the murder of his son. It is as in-the-face as it can get with an emotional package. Things get crazy when it seems like the culprits might get away — not only that, but the reason for the murder also seems to be superfluous. Kevin Bacon is the star here, as expected. He is solid. The only pet-pieve of mine is the credibility. I find it hard to believe that the Justice System would be that failed. To add to that, the Police and Detectives just feel out of their mind; their lack os sympathy is shocking, and I can only feel but a beat cheated as if the story is just forcing matters onto me. Other than that, the plotline and momentum is there. As far as revenge thrillers go, Death Sentence carries itself through just fine. See more William Rosa T @WilliamCritica Jan 12 O filme começa muito bem, bons argumentos, bem crível, todavia, no último arco, ele perde sua congruência em prol da espetacularização; esta cena, a que me refiro, foi totalmente exagerada e desconexa da realidade do filme; o final, desse mesmo take, recupera o prestígio que o filme tinha até então. Kevin Bacon tem atuação sublime, convence muito como pai de família e executivo do mercado de capitais (achei que faltou usar a profissão do protagonista, para acrescentar algo a sua jornada de vingança). James Wan não tem medo de mostrar cenas fortes, isso caiu muito bem, em não sendo num filme de terror.

This movie had potential other than the script was badly written. Some of the lines were idiotic that a non writer like myself could have done better. If you have nothing better to watch (Almost anything) then check it out. See more Read all reviews
