Cold Pursuit is a 2019 American black comedy action thriller film directed by Hans Petter Moland (in his Hollywood debut) from a screenplay by Frank Baldwin. It is a remake of the 2014 Norwegian vigilante film In Order of Disappearance, also directed by Moland. The film was released in the United States on February 8, 2019, by Summit Entertainment. It received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the action sequences and the dark humor.

Liam Neeson does it again!!!!. I was looking forward to a good movie and it by far surpassed my expectations! The dark comedy reminded me of my all-time favorite "Fargo". Great right out of the gate, artfully combining action, gore with humor. The drug lords that Liam set his sights on killing were no match for his character, a man of few spoken words, who dished out a heaping plate of cold revenge.

All the actors/characters in this movie played into the story and made it so enjoyable. Tom Bateman played the ADHD villain you love to hate, and made the film a thrilling ride.

Was totally entertained with the story line, amazing cinematography, great directing and acting...this one gives your money's worth, for sure!
