4.0 out of 5 stars excellent movie, 22 Sep 2008
This review is from: Eastern Promises [HD DVD] [2007] [US Import] (HD DVD)
This film got panned by the critics. The acting is good, although I felt Miss Watts miscast and if I was to slate it for anything it would be just that.

It is very violent so if you dont like blood and guts then dont watch. Not my kind of film but enjoyed nevertheless, Viggo plays the bad guy to perfection as does Mr Cassell he is so bad hes demonic. If you enjoyed A History of Violence then you will enjoy this.

3.0 out of 5 stars Eastern Promises, Blu-Ray, 10 April 2009
By Spider Monkey (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
'Eastern Promises' is a film about a midwife who inadvertently become embroiled in the world of the Russian mafia in London. It has plenty of intrigue and a few plot twists and then sadly fizzles out at the end, leaving you feeling rather dissatisfied (hence the 3 stars). It could have delivered so much more and had plenty of scope for an additional twenty minutes or so to tie up loose ends and leave the viewer with a complete ending. In it's favour it has some pretty good performances from Vigo Mortensen and Naomi Watts, but it pays to be aware that there are some quite violent scenes in this film. If you're looking for a short film with enough of a storyline to keep you engaged and don't mind an ambiguous ending then this is the place to go, personally I was left feeling rather deflated and without a feeling of resolution.
