Bullseyes: ④ (out of 5)
Blue Ruin
is one long slow simmer of a movie. The suspense builds right from the get-go
when we learn that the main character, a homeless dude living out of his ‘Blue
Ruin’ shit box of a car, is faced with the release of his wife and kid’s killer…
What’s
he going to do?
The action
is deliberate and mostly wordless. And why not? Why do we need words anyway when our actions are all that count?
Wow that
was profound.
By the end
of the movie there is the sense that everything was inevitable and yet, nobody won. A lot like life then, right?
Wow, I’ve
blown my mind…
