A very good watch

Caleb Faulkner (Garret Hedlund) has a history of violence. But when his son Barron (Dante Hale) is tragically killed, the grieving father kidnaps Ethan Chambers (Christian Convery), the child responsible, igniting a frenzied manhunt fueled by a powerful politician, the father of the kidnapped boy.It's a typical revenge tale with sub plots and some twists, but it is very well done. There's lots of drama and lot's of nail biting tension.Brittany Snow plays a decent part as Caleb's wife Jackie, and Garret Hedlund is back to his normal brooding self in a role meant for him. When Hedlund is at his best he is great to watch. Stephen Lang is great as usual although his deep fried voice which is a deliberate affectation is grinding as usual and I truly wish he would drop it.Christian Convery, who did a great job in the excellent Sweet Tooth, is beyond great in the role of Ethan Chambers. It's great to see such a young actor turn in such a powerful performance.All in all a satisfying and enjoyable film and I gave it a solid 7.

Derivative scenes wrapping something fresh but dark

I was surprised how much I liked this film considering how over used and predictable many of the scenes and situations were in this new action thriller. The sometimes over the top the performances are often powerfully emotional and the cast particularly the lead are fully committed to the point where it is hard to come away unshaken and deeply moved, they overcome many derivative tropes of the genre. On the surface it is a revenge story but peeling back the layers there is a lot of dark human condition explored here and this combination I have not often seen before.It never quite knocks it out of the park and it has more than a few weak spots but has some stand out memorable moments and explores a lot of uncomfortable subjects and emotions. If you like your thriller black with no sugar this dark brooding world conjured here is for you. I consider this a point above average, seven from me.

Severely Flawed World Building

This entire movie is just endless cliche after cliche.Every beat is something we seen before.Every beat in an order we heard before.It tries really hard to have some sort of redemption arc but it all falls flat.Everyone is corrupt and none of them are held accountable. We are treated to a vast conspiracy. With conspirators that are so morally bankrupt they will turn a blind eye to e child abuse.And at no point is it clear why the vast majority of these people are participating. We're just supposed to accept it as if this takes place in some fantasy world where people are terrible by default.Unless you're watching this to follow some particular person's career arc, there is no reason not to skip this one.
