“Sometimes revenge is the best therapy.”

DramaActionComedyThriller

A crook sets out to get revenge on the thugs who hurt his father in this bloody noir-style crime drama. After being released from prison, Johnny Crown goes after Frank, one of the mobsters involved in a series of Father's Day killings. But Johnny isn't certain Frank is responsible for his father's injuries and seeks help from a sex therapist to make sure he's got the right man.

VIBE

This is a gritty, cynical plunge into a violent underworld, fueled by a relentless quest for revenge. It feels like a pulpy, neo-noir crime thriller with a darkly comedic edge, where moral lines are blurred and every step is fraught with danger. A propulsive, visceral experience.
