Review of The Salvation (2014) by Spencer K — 30 May 2016
A nice change to see a film well under 2 hours with a coherent plot. The film instills a danger I haven't seen in a western for a long time where it feels the weak are absolutely powerless against those who prey upon them.
Until they make the mistake of messing with Mads Mikkelsen of course. Mikkelsen continues to be one of the most captivating actors on screen with that rare ability to look fragile and/or terrifying at any given moment.
The washed out colours and graining making the night and day segments interesting to look at too. A solid little film.
