À propos de ce film

"Edge of Darkness" is an emotionally charged thriller set at the intersection of politics and big business. Thomas Craven (Mel Gibson) is a veteran homicide detective for the Boston Police Department and a single father. When his only child, 24-year-old Emma (Bojana Novakovic), is murdered on the steps of his home, everyone assumes that he was the target. But he soon suspects otherwise, and embarks on a mission to find out about his daughter's secret life and her killing. His investigation leads him into a dangerous, looking-glass world of corporate cover-ups, government collusion and murder--and to shadowy government operative Darius Jedburgh (Ray Winstone), who has been sent in to clean up the evidence. Craven's solitary search for answers about his daughter's death transforms into an odyssey of emotional discovery and redemption.

Notes et avis

Went into it hoping for better. I had recently watched the original and found it far darker and grittier. Mel Gibson's performance was fine but Ray Winston as a covert spy???? Nah. It's not a bad movie and a reasonable thriller. But it's worth an extra star if you've not seen the original.

Mel Gibson back to his Lethal weapon and Payback best

Today buy movies with subtitles and I don't have subtitles is no good
