Like A History of Violence, Cronenberg's uniquely clinical and undramatic visual and storytelling style remains intact in his latest Russian mobster masterpiece. The slow trickle of humanity is brilliantly executed, the characters uniformly excellent, and noir-style mutation of screen and script must been seen to be appreciated. 8.8/10.
