Atom Egoyan

Acting: 5.0; Theme: 5.0; Content: 3.0; Language: 2.0; Overall: 5.0

Holocaust "survivor" Zev Guttman, who suffers from dementia, awakens to find his wife missing. His friend in the nursing home, Max Rosenbaum, also a holocaust survivor, convinces Guttman that he promised his wife that he would revenge the murders of both of their families who had died in a German concentration camp. Guttman sneaks from the home to seek out and murder the man who horrifically murdered their families, with the show more help of a letter that Rosembaum penned. Highly recommend.

Overall, the movie didn't use any vulgarity until about 3/4 of the way through the movie, and there were at least ten uses of vulgarity and one use of God's name in vain in a short period. There were also several very violent murder scenes.

Great insight into Atom Egoyan. More people should watch his films.
