| Sober Film Critic James Brown | 97 | - Delivering a poignant, brooding drama, director J. C. Chandor continues along this path of proving himself on all fronts. His latest piece of cinema is a dark, intense film that in many ways is reminiscent of The Godfather movies. Like Francis Ford Coppola's most enduring works, A Most Violent Year is a potent film in which the rich dialogue supersedes all else. (full review) |
