3/10
In fact, it's just dull

Warning: Spoilers
While not sufficiently short, I did get its sense of killing (in terms of length as well as its content). Its graphic violent scenes are said to be highly effective. While not shocking, they're boring enough to end up as an avoidable drag (if it's the same movie I watched). Apparently, I'm at loss for my shortsightedness to savor this acclaimed masterpiece. All the same, I did find it engaging in parts, and appreciate its uncomplicated storyline. If only it was equally interesting. Hope you face no problems enjoying it to its fullest. I'd barely call this violent, and I'd easily recommend it to the squeamish. The first hour is pretty dull in general, bland character development, meandering pace, and annoying melodramatic music. That said the last 20 minutes is a pretty powerful criticism of the death penalty.
