Some would say no. Revenge is sweet. Others would say to wait for Karma to work her magic is better than imposing your own vengeance. In all honesty, that is simply sitting in shadows, waiting for your rival to get their dues so you can feel the warmth that comes from a grin as it emerges from the vengeance you have so longed for.
No matter your stance, we all want vengeance.
This film was an interesting look into revenge. There is no denying that you feel for the characters and want them to find their revenge. Following their journey is anger, wrath, insanity and sadness. These are all the emotions that dwell within someone who has been victimized. It is all beautifully displayed among a lush Tasmanian setting and the actors played their roles well.
While it is a very sobering film, dark and purposeful, it does has a second unfolding story inside itself. It is a story of learning to trust and letting go of common ignorance. Realizing that even though we each face our heartaches one on one, it is a big world full of others facing their own heartache and in these people we can find commonality, understanding and comfort. This is, for me the most touching aspect of the film.
I would recommend this film for people who are looking for a revengeful period piece. I enjoyed it. It was filmed beautifully. The costuming and makeup were simplistic but well suited. The darkness of some of the settings really helped in driving home the turmoil of the characters.
I was pleased.
