'A Most Violent Year' is a more subdued realistic crime drama. On the surface this looks like the typical fare. You have a rich businessman growing in wealth, while his corrupt competitors attempt to take him down. The difference from similar films here is the attention paid to the workings of this business and what it means to everyone involved. Our protagonist isn't evil, greedy, or violent. He's just very determined and calculated, wanting to earn respect through good word but not afraid to get his hands dirty. I liked this overall presentation of the story and characters. It felt very real. This is a nice slow, involving piece showcasing terrific acting. Well worth a watch for those interested.
