Revenge - Coralie Fargeat
Thriller/Suspense - R - 2018
With radiant colors and flashy cinematography -- Revenge is a gruesome take on the classic revenge tale, with a feminist spin. It is absolutely brutal and unforgiving, displaying the visceral transition of Jen from eye-candy to relentless killer. Definitely not a viewing experience that everyone can handle. Revenge is the tale of a woman trying to regain herself after being stripped of humanity and left for dead. Sort of a feminist take on The Revenant, if you will. While medical accuracy falters at times, the film finds more success if you view Jen as an angel of death extracting vengeance on those that left her forsaken. It is a hardcore, blood-fueled thriller that leads up to a riveting climax. If you are looking for action/violence over plot/acting, Revenge is a solid thriller.
