Blue Ruin is a graphic, unflinching revenge thriller, stripped to its rawest essence. Dwight is a socially awkward drifter who discovers his parents' killer has gotten out of jail and sets off on a personal, ill-prepared quest for vengeance. For a long time, the revenge genre has been sanitized to ideas or agendas. Instead of being a heroic tale, Blue Ruin focuses on the emotional and physical after-effect of violence. Director Jeremy Saulnier masterfully weaves a narrative full of tension that makes every choice feel excruciatingly real.
