A history of violence is a movie packed with explicit violence and sex scenes.
Viggo Mortensen does an ok job in this movie but it's not enough to really turn this movie into a great one. The story got real potential, and I bet that landing Sean Penn as the leading actor would have turned this movie into a classic.
It's well worth watching, but don't expect too much.

I think this was a fairly good movie. The story is original, and Viggo Mortensen does a good job as always. It's got a fairly slow pace, so those after an action movie might possibly not like this one. This movie would definitely be on my list of movies one should see though.
