Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesIn one of the bar scenes, an extra is sitting in a booth on the other side of John (Nicolas Cage). This extra has a portrait tattoo of Cage that was autographed by Cage at that same bar when they happened to meet a few months before.
- PatzerIn the bar, the bartender mentions that Bethie was 6 years old at the time of her father's layoff from work 4 or 5 years ago (making her 10 or 11). A few minutes later Teena mentions 4th grade math, making Bethie either 9 or 10. She also had stated Bethie is 10 (thus confirming the bartender's remarks about the time line and Teena's about 4th grade math). However, her grandmother (at around 25 mins) says Bethie is 12.

Ausgewählte Rezension
Dark tale about rape aftermath
Vengeance: A Love Story is based on the book Rape: A Love Story by Joyce Carol Oates, and it makes a difference. Cage plays John Dromoor – a Niagara Falls hero cop and Purple-Heart-awarded Desert Storm veteran, who takes a personal interest in a case when a young single mother is gang-raped. While the story doesn't look quite original and the vigilante cop theme isn't even an strange role for Cage, this movie is not just another run-of-the-mill vigilante movie. True, it focuses more on the vigilante part than the book (probably the reason for the change in titles), but this is a story about rape all the same, not vengeance.
As such, it's darker, slower but also better compared to similar movies. The story is well put together, though the aftermath and the effects of the lives of Teena and Bethie could have been a little more fleshed out, and similarly some of the other main characters, notably the judge and Don Johnson's lawyer character.
The acting is good. Cage is good, his usual, but slower, a bit more withdrawn. Don Johnson's performance as an unscrupulous lawyer oozes slime (good role-casting) and Talitha Bateman puts on a good performance as the daughter. Sadly, the final third falls quite flat, and I blame mostly the title. If you make a movie about vengeance, than put a bit more effort in it. While more realistic than Cage's usual wise- cracking one-liners, the movie builds up to a momentum that never really arrives, as he coldly and efficiently disposes of the perps. But overall, this is a decent movie, just don't expect a blood soaked, bullet-riddled vigilante movie.
