A WALK AMONG THE TOMBSTONES<\/strong><\/p>\n

Universal Pictures<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reviewed for Shockya by Harvey Karten. Data-based on Rotten Tomatoes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Grade:\u00a0 B<\/strong><\/p>\n

Director:\u00a0 Scott Frank<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screenplay:\u00a0 Scott Frank, novel by Lawrence Block<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cast:\u00a0 Liam Neeson, Dan Stevens, David Harbour, Robert Boyd Holbrook, Ruth Wilson, Sebastian Roche<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screened at:\u00a0 AMC Lincoln Square, NYC, 9\/15\/14<\/strong><\/p>\n

Opens:\u00a0 September 19, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cPeople are afraid of all the wrong things,\u201d says the tagline, this taken from the mouth of one of the kidnapper-killers who, noting a headline about fear of the upcoming Y2K (a potential computer shutdown said to take place when the year 2000 rolled around).\u00a0 Obviously the greater fear is that someone near and dear to you might be kidnapped, tortured and killed, which sets the movie in motion under the direction of Scott Frank\u2014the scripter for the unlikely \u201cMarley and Me\u201d about a neurotic dog.\u00a0 There is a cute Jack Russell in the movie and a cute African-American kid who chooses to play detective, but as the \u201cScudder\u201d series by Lawrence Block goes, \u201cA Walk Among the Tombstones\u201d is arguably the most labyrinthine and ponderous.\u00a0 \u201cA Walk\u201d is overlong, the teen gumshoe is too cute by half, and the plot, with its theme of revenge, is too much like that of the standard-bearers of the genre.\u00a0 But Liam Neeson\u2019s always reliable performance saves the picture, as he hammers out a role of an ex-alcoholic, unlicensed private investigator who works to do people favors rather than as a steady employment.<\/p>\n

In this case, he gets the word from Kenny Kristo (Dan Stevens) through the drug-dealer\u2019s brother, that he wants to two men who kidnapped, tortured, and killed his wife tracked down and handed over to him for appropriate punishment.\u00a0 Matthew Scudder (Liam Neeson) is not concerned about the man\u2019s shady profession but does take the job, reluctantly, when he discovers that the murderers will not be content with just one victim.\u00a0 He is determined to track down the two, disgusted that they killed the drug dealer\u2019s wife despite receiving the $400,000 ransom as ordered. When a fourteen-year-old woman is kidnapped, Scudder is driven to rescue her, insisting that the kidnappers prove that she is alive, and setting up a scenario to ensure that when the money is exchanged, the frightened teen is released.<\/p>\n

The plot takes in quite a number of events and quirky personalities, such as the caretaker of Brooklyn\u2019s celebrated Greenwood Cemetery, who keeps a crew of pigeons on his roof as a hobby and who knows more than he at first admits about the kidnappers.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Much is made of TJ (Astro), the black teenager whose parents did not want him and who lives on the streets and in a shelter rather than accept residence with foster parents.\u00a0 An aspiring detective himself, he spends his days in the public library, either sleeping or poring over newspaper clippings, giving Scudder information that he gleans from the microfilms.<\/p>\n

Writer-director Frank spares no graphics as Scudder, and we in the audience, listen to phone conversations of the vicious killers who take joy not only in kidnapping and killing but in chopping victims into parts and stuffing them into bags for dumping at the cemetery.\u00a0 Much of the action takes place in the rain, giving the movie a nourish ambiance, even providing something else to fear\u2014the teen has sickle-cell anemia, a condition that can become fatal under conditions of such bad weather.<\/p>\n

Just as the novel is part of the \u201cScudder\u201d series, we can expect moviemakers to follow up \u201cA Walk\u201d with a number of sequels.<\/p>\n
