A model of clean, lean storytelling.

Hopefully [it will] encourage a sobering sense of responsibility and a more truthful perspective on identities (individual and national).

A truly entertaining and engrossing study of violence, family, and our pasts eventually coming back to haunt us...
Empire Magazine Australasia
November 07, 2012
With A History Of Violence, Cronenberg uses the pulp gangster genre - as opposed to, say, sci-fi horror -- to draw us into a dialogue on our relationship as voyeurs to violence, both real and cinematic.

A fascinating exercise in cinematic restraint resulting in a captivating, not to be missed film.

The film, based on a graphic novel, has a crackling sense of visual tension.
New Yorker

Cronenberg's direction, mirroring the split in Tom, is alternately measured and frighteningly explosive, and, as always, he gives the movie a nasty underlay of sexual perversity.
April 20, 2011
Without conceding any of his iconoclastic vision, Cronenberg has turned a genre film with classic Western overtones into a gripping psychological drama that examines the duality of man and his infatuation with the art of violence.

This peculiarly predictable picture has been calculated, or miscalculated, to set up certain expectations, fulfill them, and then do the same thing again, thereby giving us a chance to see what's coming and, at least in theory, be shocked.

While it weakens in its final stretch...A History of Violence succeeds enormously thanks to the strength of its direction and performances.
New York Magazine/Vulture

A remarkably convincing examination of heroism, hero worship, and the seductive allure of villainy.

The less you know about this movie before seeing it -- and you really should see it -- the better.
