a history of violence

It's not a bad film. It's just quite small. You sort of expect something a bit grander, a bit more like Eastern Promises.

Maybe 'subtle' is the word. It doesn't do anything wrong, the whole cast is really good, it's pretty gripping and unexpected... Just doesn't quite give you enough to get that excited about. All the suspense and curiosity of The Long Kiss Good Night, but all the adrenaline of the autumn harvest.
