Review: Cold Pursuit

Violence begets violence. If you want revenge, that’s probably a bad idea. It just leads to more negativity and hurt for more people than you would ever think possible. Cold Pursuit takes this excellent message and absolutely butchers it.

Silence and the Importance of Questions

But what happens when a movie isn’t really trying to tell you anything? What if its goal is to raise questions for the viewer to think about and process so that they can decide for themselves what they think about certain topics? A movie like this still has themes and ideas that it brings up and presents to the audience, but they aren’t the focal point. They aren’t what the filmmaker wants you to take away from the film. In this situation, as previously mentioned, the filmmaker wants you to think for yourself about the topics at hand.
