I almost didn’t see “Silent Night” because of the low reviews, but This movie was fun in my humble opinion and I was very entertained . Loved the tone of the movie and I felt really bad for Joel Kinnaman’s character. Seeing him get revenge was so satisfying.

I don’t know I personally really liked it, while agreeing they should’ve let at least some of the side characters say some things. I thought Joel Kinnaman’s performance was very emotionally raw and strong, deserves a lot of credit honestly. The action was of course bloody and satisfying and thought Woo did a very good job of keeping it engaging visually and with music. As far as the “white Suburban rage” thing I think that’d be over analyzing it in a weird way. All of his other American films had rather purposely generic or one note bad guys just for the sake of the story vehicle itself. I don’t see it as any more then that.

Silent Night is simply put an Independent Experimental Art Film with plenty of action in an attempt to test new grounds in telling a story visually without a dialogue…..thus, he kept the story and props for John Woo for taking such risk….

Hard Boiled and his other HK stuff are fantastic, But Red Cliff is something else. It's a big 5hr time commitment, but there's also a scene where two guys play musical instruments aggressively at each other. Still interested in SN, even with the lukewarm reactions. I'd also love to see the big 2 part romantic drama he made, but that seems even more unavailable than his most loved movies.

There aren't any actual doves in the film, but there is a hilarious easter egg: The fictional city it's set in is called Las Palomas, which is Spanish for doves. That overhead shot of him walking into the police station shows a dove on the city seal.

John Woo deserves better. But I am rooting for him to continue making more films in the future. Cause he has talent and vision. Btw I may need to borrow the DVD copy of Hard Boiled 😉 lol

Went in expecting to root for Kinnaman’s character… … left the theater emotionally moved by Sandino Moreno’s instead. Thank god the wife was strong enough to move on from him and go through the on-going process of healing the healthier way. Was not expecting that deviation of following a protagonist’s character arc like that. I think the letter at the end of the movie solidified that for me, that the wife did the right thing and became the true hero in the end.

Totally agree with the tone and handling of the script for putting me off somewhat. Got some of the heebie-geebies from this. On the plus side, it got me to check out some other Woo flicks to better appreciate the man and his evident craftsmanship.

The movie was BORINg! They should have Called it "Silent Movie" instead. the trailer fools you, save your money because the trailer is as good as it gets. to get to those highlights you are put through such boredom, if it was not because of my pop corn I would have fell asleep in the first 20 minutes of the movie BOOORRRINGGGG!!! they speak all but 10 words in the whole movie!!! save your money wait to get bored when it comes out on TV, that way you can at least fall asleep on your sofa. TWO THUMBS DOWN.
