Retribution movie review: Liam Neeson's action-thriller is flawed yet watchable

Cast: Liam Neeson, Noma Dumezweni, Lilly Aspell, Jack Champion, Embeth Davidtz, Matthew Modine Director: Nimród Antal Language: English In recent times, we have seen a common pattern in all Liam Neeson films, where the action star fights against all odds like a one-man army to save his family and loved ones. Regardless of wafer-thin plots and poor execution, Neeson has always managed to shine and impress us with his superb act. If you look at the core plot, the premise of looks interesting and entertaining but the poor execution and lame treatment make it into an ordinary affair. Talking about the performances, Liam Neeson carries this flawed thriller on his capable shoulders and emotes every expression whether it’s pain, agony, or guilt in a convincing manner.
