Wick's Review
Summary - Really Great 4.5
Perhaps the best film of the year: captivating, surprising, taut, sexy, fresh (even though it covers well trod themes of many a mob movie before). Showcases the quiet charisma of Viggo Mortensen in perhaps his finest role yet.
Acting - Great 4.0
Stellar acting throughout, none more impressive than Viggo Mortensen, who is crafting a career of quiet magnificence, with his EP performance perhaps his best yet. The guy always plays the easy going stud, here a perfect soldier in the Russian mob of present day London.

Thank you to NO LIFE for adding an endorsement of Eastern Promises. It is a mystery how this movie got aced out of awards nominations by lesser films such as Michael Clayton.
