Absolution Reviews
In Absolution, Neeson finally has the chance to remind us why he’s such a great actor.
Ironically, Moland's film can't be absolved of bungling what appears to be a compelling narrative template in this busy-bodied character study which sabotages the assets of its supporting cast.
Without much, Relentless...entertains and one leaves the cinema at least satisfied, if not entered with excessive expectations. [Full review in Spanish]
If the story works, it is thanks to its protagonist, who is able to remain undaunted and, despite this, endow his character with a sensitivity that connects the viewer directly with his drama. [Full review in Spanish]
Moland opts for a contemplative style, which oscillates between static shots and subtle camera movement. The alternation of both creates a peaceful rhythm that is only broken by the scenes of violence. [Full review in Spanish]
A thriller with a certain class that provokes unexpected waves of emotion. [Full review in Spanish]
A surprisingly mature vehicle for Liam Neeson, who's spent decades making B-level action/revenge movies, this brooding, fatalistic crime drama really gives him something to sink his teeth into.
It's a film that suffers from its disparate ideas and stacking of clichés - but though there's little to really grasp onto, it's hard to take your eyes off Neeson.
Yes, this feels like a lesser version of the criminally underseen Brian Cox-Kate Beckinsale drama Prisoner’s Daughter crossed with As Good As It Gets, but, as with In the Land of Saints and Sinners, Neeson wins you over with his vulnerability and nuance.
More familiar than fresh, the screenplay is too gimmicky to work as a contemplative exploration of guilt and masculinity.
Liam Neeson delivers a subtly melancholic turn in this otherwise familiar crime drama.
Despite its weighty title and overall atmosphere of grim existential dread, Absolution falls far short of the philosophical depths to which it clearly aspires.
It can be a slow movie at times and it feels like a 1970's film, even though it's set in modern day. Between Liam Neeson's performance, and others like Ron Perlman and Yolanda Ross, it makes for a decent flick.
Moderately gripping crime drama.
“Absolution” is the three d’s: dark, dour and depressing.
It's way too somber for a journey we've embarked on so many times before, yet when it works, it packs quite a wallop, and the sight of its central star (hopefully forever) shedding his established persona is alone worth the price of admission.
After that lame Marlowe attempt, between this and In the Land of Saints and Sinners, these calmer, more reflective features have done well for the star performer that Neeson still can be.
Yeah, there are a few action sequences, but they’re not the draw; if that’s what you’re looking for, you’re going to be bored out of your mind. I would argue, though, that this is a better movie for it.
Absolution prioritizes emotional depth over action. While it may be marketed as a new Taken, the film is a far richer experience.
The pacing is problematic and aspects of the ending don’t work. As a streaming option, however (which is probably where it is speedily headed), it’s a passable way to spend a couple of hours.
