2/5
The chthonic atmosphere is oddly mesmerising, perhaps because - like a prison sentence - it wears you down eventually. Go to Full Review
Noel Murray Los Angeles Times Feb 8, 2019
Writer-director Matthew Berkowitz's crime drama "A Violent Man" has all the pungent cynicism of a classic film noir but lacks the urgency. Go to Full Review
Edward Porter Sunday Times (UK) Feb 6, 2022
2/5
The film’s first-time director, Ross McCall, has written a gruelling script. Go to Full Review
Malik Adán REELYDOPE Nov 6, 2019
... the film is still a worthy installment in the neo-noir cannon, if only for its pursuit of a story that isn't styled after Harmony Korine's particular brand of "chaos in paradise" narratives in America's southeastern corridor. Go to Full Review
Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Feb 9, 2019

7/10

Mar 18, 2019 Thomas Jones is a very underated actor. Was great in the Luke Cage series and it's great to see him in this movie that he also produced! See more
Draco R Feb 9, 2019 An intense movie that inherently addresses many current issues in society. The screen play is powerful and provoking.
