Gritty and True.
What doesn’t kill you, makes perfect sense for this film. It seems Paulie and Brian (Ethan Hawke and Mark Ruffalo)do everything they can to survive in South Boston.Growing up together, Brian and Paulie go through everything to be able to live and raise families. This gritty story can’t be more realistic, with the real life events come to life.
Living in tough times is relatable to more people than realised, that’s why this story really hits home, with brilliant screen play by to of the most highly underrated actors, Ethan Hawke and Mark Ruffalo.
7/10 for this gritty drama.
engrossing and well-made
Well-made with engaging performances and a good script, ‘What doesn’t kill you’ makes for an afternoons decent entertainment. Allegedly based on real-life events which is a scary thought that life can be so hard for some people. Comparisons to ‘The Departed’ are inevitable, although a far superior film, ‘The Departed’ suffered from a lack of humanity. Mark Ruffallo provides a human heart to this film with an affecting performance that stays with you long after the film has ended. Ethan Hawke suffers with a one-dimensional character and bad editing and Donnie Wahlberg provides able support. All in all, a very competent film well told.
