By confronting its inherent moral complexity, the film develops an undercurrent of sympathy beneath the testosterone-fueled, predictably brutal surface.

The Oklahoman
The director Nick Rowland locks your interest in early and firmly with a curious, seemingly contradictory mix of beauty and danger, a combination encapsulated by the delicately blurred image of man’s powerful hand.

Rating: 2.5/4 --

Rating: B --
Despite the claustrophobic entrapment in a violent and hyper-masculine world, 'The Shadow of Violence' is an ultimately moving morality tale announcing a confident new voice in international cinema.
