A Walk Among The Tombstones review

I don't really need much encouragement to see a Liam Neeson film. Okay, so his back-catalogue of movies has had a fair few misses as well as hits (I'm looking at you, Unknown and The Grey), but films I love him in such as Taken and Non-Stop are more than enough to convince me that this actor is actually a talent and despite being relatively typecast, does still make some good'uns.

Unfortunately for me, I think this blind admiration for Neeson may have shot me in the foot when it came to his latest drama. Despite many people telling me it looked a bit naff, I refused to listen and wandered into the cinema with a spring in my step to see A Walk Among The Tombstones.

Non-Stop review: Same Neeson... just different action movie

Everything about this movie screams typical cheesy thriller. The short, relatively ambiguous title, an intensely squinting man pointing a gun on the poster and of course, Liam. But whilst it's set up is more than predictable, it's plot certainly isn't, in this "whodunnit" popcorn movie that will keep you guessing until the last 20 minutes (pun completely intended).
