The first time I watched this film was mind blowing. I had already seen the prequel and I thought it was really fresh, different and exciting, then I had access to Retribution and I loved the director's work even more. The film has so many elements that make it interesting: suspense, drama, action and really cool bad guys. The introduction of the new characters is fantastic, the old characters from its prequel are even meaner. Advice: watch The Ticking Man first! You'll come to love Barry.
I can't be extremely explanatory without spoiling the plot, and as I said I strongly recommend to watch The Ticking Man first. If you haven't seen it stop reading now! For those of you who have already seen it, if you liked the lovely crooks Barry and Ian you'll get to see much more of them in Retribution. Marianne and Peter are back, and again in danger. Stylistically, the beautiful tunnel sequence is revisited. Retribution might not be as visually different as the prequel, but in terms of the narrative, it gets better and better. Enjoy!... and make sure you don't get into any dark alleys.
