Hell-bent on avenging the murder of his family, a former detective infiltrates a remote island that serves as a prison for vicious death row criminals.
This is the kind of martial arts flick my grandfather would have loved. We used to watch films like this almost every Sunday afternoon when I was a kid. Obviously The Raid has opened the door for much more blood and sustained gore, but that doesn't mean they're any less fun. Revenger is as generic an action movie as they come. You know exactly what is going to happen when it's going to happen. The film is also stuck between two protagonists, unsure of who to follow. But I still could kick back and enjoy the carnage.
