Directed by David Cronenberg, A History of Violence is a thriller with a hefty dose of violence and action, but also a cool mystery at its center. Not surprisingly, it received a Best Screenplay Oscar nomination.
Viggo Mortensen brings his raw talent to the main character, and is excellent. Ed Harris, and William Hurt are also great, with the latter receiving a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination.
THE BOTTOM LINE: Not for the squeamish I guess, but this is definitely a good movie.
Grade: 7.5
