Eastern Promises DVD

Eastern Promises: Viggo Mortensen and Naomi Watts star in this film that plunges into the world of the Russian mafia. Viggo plays a butler working for a notorious mob family in London. Watts meanwhile plays Anna, a midwife who delivers a baby from an unknown teenage girl who dies while giving birth. The baby, along with a diary the girl left behind thrusts Anna into the dark world of organized crime. The film’s plot opens up slowly, revealing new twists and deeper discoveries. The style in which the story is told is similar to that of History of Violence which was done by the same director. Like History I felt this movie was good, but had the potential to be great. A heads up on the old man playing the crime boss…..he is a mumbler. For a rental – this is definitely worth a spin
