May 06, 2020There is something incredibly realistic about this film's portrayal of revenge that makes it all feel authentic because it is such a small-scale production. There is a depressingly quiet tone to the entire film that makes it feel like I am watching a tragedy unfold in front of me. The visuals are gorgeous with a naturally dark haze to everything, like what I am seeing is something that was meant to stay hidden in the shadows. This is the kind of film that registers as a whisper in an often loud genre of thrillers and I love every second of it.Gregorio R Super Reviewer

Oct 09, 2017Blue Ruin is one of the rawest and most emotionally attached thrillers I've seen in recent years. The story is an intense affair, dealing with a dissacoiated hero with his heart and mind set on avenging the death of his parents. The performances are extremely capable and dedicated from the outset and the casting is fantastic. The stripped back, indie feel to Blue Ruin is bolstered by the film's intricate and "barely there" score, a cast of mostly unrecogniseables and a washed out, pale pallet in the majority of it's mise-en-scene. Definitely worth a watch.Harry W Super Reviewer

Oct 22, 2015A human element really entices this thriller that should be described as "way more than a revenge film"John K Super Reviewer

Sep 13, 2015Blue Ruin is a thoroughly entertaining revenge story. This is definitely worth seeing, but just be ready for a film drenched in blood.Stephen S Super Reviewer
