Frankly I wasn't as impressed as many reviewers. It seemed to me a typical example of depressed Austrian nihilism. Wim Wenders or Werner Herzog never would have made a film this glum.

Revanche was mesmerizing, gritty, real. No false steps, no wasted scenes, a work of art. The only curiosity was no subtitles, at first, for some of the dialogue.
