n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

'A Walk Among the Tombstones' is little bit more than usual Liam Neeson action flick. Bleak and gritty psychological thriller which roots definitely lie in the neo-noir genre and it also stands somewhat as an homage to hard boiled detective stories (Sam Spade and Philip Marlowe are referenced several times and the screenplay is based on the novel of the same name by author Lawrence Block). Although the film barely manages to float over the usual genre clichés it fails to offer anything new and by the end it is still a standard fare that is pretty forgettable. Liam Neeson's dedicated performance felt even too much of a waste for such a film.

Private investigator Matthew Scudder is hired by a drug kingpin to find out who kidnapped and murdered his wife. A Walk Among the Tombstones is one of those movies that a lot of people won't enjoy and i'm totally OK with that but there's a lot of good stuff about this movie for example the slow and really cool detective moments, the noir and dark vibe that it sells sometimes it makes you ask for more, Liam Neeson is doing a great job and he really fits the part well especially his past sometimes comes back to haunt him. Also the 2 men that play the killers also do a really good amount of job plus i liked the character of TJ and how he fit with the story. But if there was this whole mystery and detective mode for the first 2 acts well the 3rd one tried to become an action film with people getting killed very easily, fight sequences and a very weird ending to say the least. If the movie had stayed of what it was from the start i would have given it the perfect score but if any of you do actually see it just remember it's not an action movie it's a crime/thriller and drama kind of a film with a really great performance by Liam Neeson. (9/10)

yea right
The films is probably 6 /10 at the best case scenario. I just hope a dark atmosphere and some nice action. Everything else, will be a pleasant surprise.3 minutes – and a nice action is already rolling. This is what I like, straight to the point~! 18 minutes – holy smokes~@! It's strong, I like it 31 minutes – if you like films about detectives this one should get the job done. It is quite pleasurable to watch 50 minutes – it reminds me of 8MM (1999), which I loved~! 1h 12 minutes – nothing extraordinary here, but it is not bad either~! I can honestly say, I am positively surprised with this one 1h 29 minutes – and it's getting betterWhat a pleasant surprise~! I got everything I wanted and some more with this one. Ladies and gentleman, it is genuine solid film.tgchan's rating: 7 /10

Liam Neeson in a thriller about kidnapping (what, again? yes, again). It's well acted, but there are just too many problems with it, mainly plot-related. It goes from place to place in a weird way, seems to go one way but goes to another. But mainly it's just pointless. At least twice during the movie I thought it's the end, but it continued. When it actually ended, I thought: So what's the point?Side note: All the gun fights scenes were incredibly loud. I don't know if that's a problem of the film or the cinema itself - because all the other scenes were in decent volume - but those scenes (especially all the guns firing) were so incredibly loud that it actually hurt my ears (or perhaps I shouldn't go to the cinema with a headache/migraine).
