A Walk Among the Tombstones

A Walk Among the Tombstones is yet another action thriller pitting Liam Neeson in a role where he has to 'find and kill somebody'.

Yes, this isn't the most original premise in the world and it's going to have to compete with the upcoming Tak3n but I would be very surprised if that surpasses this.

Taking the current trend for basic camera work, seedy streets and 'setting everything at night and at some undetermined point in time somewhere in the 90's' (I'm blaming Drive for starting this one off) good old retired-cop-turned-mercenary-for-hire Neeson is tasked with finding two serial killers bumping off drug dealer's wives.

It's got everything you'd expect but is lacking in twists and turns and emotional attachment.

There's certainly nothing that wrong with it but it's not going to win any awards.

Entertaining and worth a watch but not one you'll be replaying over and over.
