Just downloaded it the other day and thought it was a great movie, not your typical mob flick. Great performance by Vigo Morthensen and has probably one of the THE best fight scenes in recent memory.

BTW has anyone seen History of Violence, I know its the same director and Vigo Mortensen in it as well. Is this movie worth watching?

I've heard its terrible but its from the same people who told me Eastern Promises sucked.

fight scene was intense. but did he really have to be completely nude? that made me uncomfortable as a viewer.

HOV seemed like it had a lot of potential, but was pretty mediocre I thought. I think I actually preferred Eastern Promises.

I thought History of Violence was amazing while Eastern Promises was so so. Eastern Promises was disappointing in my mind and is not a movie I would watch again.

History of Violence on the other hand I can watch multiple times and still enjoy.
