Review of The Pledge

The Pledge (I) (2001)
9/10
This movie will not leave my mind.
1 April 2010
I cannot explain how much I liked this movie, because I cannot simply define my reasons. It is such a thrilling ride to take along side Mr. Nicholson's character Jerry Black as he literally goes crazy trying to find a killer who presumably has already been captured.

The amount of dedication and love delivered is beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. There is never a moment where this lacks, and in my honest opinion it makes the film all the more captivating.

In some ways there are different stories tied into this one motion picture; There is Jerry, a retired cop working on a case, then there is Jerry, an overwhelmed man adopted into a beautiful family of which he feels is his responsibility to protect. The Pledge is conclusive, it is gripping and heart wrenching.

I can't say anything bad about this movie, because I literally feel as though it is a masterpiece.
