Predictable.....
2 September 2015 | by – See all my reviews

Return to Sender is a rather predictable crime drama. It took me less than half the film to figure out what was happening and what the outcome would be.

Sadly the script is well worn revenge fare that falls short of the mark. For me, this film would have had far more impact had it walked a gentler path of reconciliation and redemption. Of course, this would have meant painting the villain of the piece in a more positive light but that was not to be.

That's not to say this is a poor film. Rosamund Pike does a reasonable job in the lead role. I was surprised to see Nick Nolte. I thought he might have retired. I'm glad he's still acting and for me, his performance was the highlight of this film.

All in all, Return to Sender is watchable but I really can not find any firm foundation on which to recommend it. Five out of ten from me.
