Vince Vaughn has picked his career comeback role well. Here's our review of Brawl In Cell Block 99...
There's an argument that crops up - and I generally side with it - when talking about violence in films. And that's that the unrealistic way it's portrayed - be it a brick being thrown at someone in Home Alone 2 or a bullet being sprayed in a Marvel film - creates an unrealistic perception as to the damage real-life violence can do. That if you're going to show a bullet hitting someone, show just what it can do. I'm still haunted, for instance, by the damage that one solitary bullet does in John Singleton's Boyz N The Hood, some 25 years after I first watched it.
