Walk a mile...

'Dead Man's Shoes (2004)' might just be one of the bleakest films I've ever seen, a near-nihilistic revenge story in which there are no real heroes and violence begets no satisfaction. It really is grim, putting Paddy Considine's angry ex-army-man on a path of no return and painting him as just as much a monster as the thugs he's after. A large part of this is due to the fact that lots of screen-time is given to the no-good, small-time gangsters who find themselves hunted by the protagonist. Even though they're nowhere near likeable - or, even, empathetic - you can't help but identify with their sheer terror as they're picked off one by one in an unrelenting, merciless fashion. The violence of the movie truly is shocking, yet never overly gratuitous. It's frank, ferocious and, sometimes, difficult to stomach. It's also never glamorised, even if it is focused on somewhat. The effect of the picture is palpable. It isn't enjoyable, per se, but it's compelling and challenging. Without offering so much as a sliver of hope, the piece pulls you into its seedy world of wrongdoing and revenge and doesn't let you out until it's well and truly finished with you. 7/10

A brilliant movie.

It doesn't rely on CGI or explosions, small town, small budget but an epic film. The acting is superb, the plot is fantastic. I've rewatched several times now and it never gets old. A must watch. 10/10

God will forgive them and I can't live with that!

As powerful a film as ever. This one is a builder, so if you're not convinced by the beginning, the chances are you will be by the end.

Perhaps the type of revenge film that append more to the British public than the U.S, as I remember reviews from there, cladding this as a slasher and it certainly isn't that.

There are dark humour moments, but this really is about the past catching up.

Both Paddy Considine and Toby Kebbel were excellent and the considine/meadows collaboration was a match we'll made.
