Audience Member After reading the description, you'd expect this to be a straightforward revenge flick. In reality, it spends much more time on the legal ramifications of vigilantism. Some of the camera work is spectacular and the cast are all great. Thoroughly enjoyable, so long as you don't mind having to use your brain a little.. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Good job done by Koen De Bouw , the movie may be a little bit harder for me , The Red bitch lawyer Veerle Baetens was a dissapointment , why the actually killing of the killer was deleted from the movie ...don't know ? SOMDVD Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Een goede film dat het thema procedurefouten goed aan het licht brengt. Ik vond de dialogen mooi en slim geschreven. Het verhaal is niet zo spectaculair en heeft ook niet veel actie, maar het is aangrijpgelijk en laat je nadenken en meevoelen met beide partijen. Ik vond wel dat er soms te grote stukken van het verhaal werden weggelaten...ik had graag meer gezien. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member An extremely well crafted film with an opening shocking sequence that is hard to take but crucial to understanding the importance of the story. Jan Verheyen leads his audience through the frustration of injustice within the Belgium Jurisdictional System where politics, adherence to laws and procedures are pitted against a citizens right for protection and retribution within the society. Definitely worth seeing. For those of you in DC, this film will be screened at Filmfest DC 2014. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Great movie from the Belgian nr1 director Jan Verheyen. The story is good, the acting outstanding and the movie keeps you interested the entire 107 minutes. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent film sur un procès difficile, avec une question centrale: la loi ou la justice?
