Cold Pursuit - Reviews

At its best, it plays like a wry critique of this unexpectedly lucrative period of Neeson's career, and a borderline-spoof of the genre as a whole.

A vicious little black comedy masquerading as a generic vigilante justice actioner, 'Cold Pursuit' is whiteout-noir with a pulp fiction edge.

The best thing about 'Cold Pursuit' is its steadfast refusal to treat its characters like Movie Tropes.

...moves forward with the implacable intent of a snowplough shifting a heavy night’s fall – but with absurd visual and aural flourishes.

The whip-smart movie balances a large array of characters, and each is treated with respect, with the realization that everyone has his or her own feelings.

...payback is Liam Neeson's business — and business is good

The film, first and foremost, is rolling its eyes at swaggering machismo, giggling at the hyper-masculine phallic symbol literally plowing its way across the screen with man’s man Neeson behind the wheel.

This ridiculously grim remake is far and away the best "Old Liam Neeson Murders Everyone" movie yet.

...en underhållande kopia vars främsta lyft är Tom Batemans sliskiga tolkning av filmens grönsaksknaprande skurk.

Den råa mörka humorn balanserar på gränsen till cynisk.

...det lykkedes for Hans Petter Moland at overføre den sorte nordiske humor fra ‘Kraftidioten’ til det amerikanske format...

...rätt så underhållande film vars främsta behållning är att äntligen se den sammanbitne Liam Neeson få locka till skratt.

...en lekfull blandning av drama, thriller och komedi som är fylld av färgstarka karaktärer.

Varje skottsalva och replikskifte sitter som en smäck, varenda diabolisk yrkesmördare är snudd på Tarantino-karismatisk.
