Vengeance (2022) | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

Vengeance makes some of its cultural stereotypes too broad and heavy-handed, and the movie's ending could have been better. Overall, the story can hold viewers' interest, as long as there's tolerance for what the movie is saying about personal biases.

...a solid debut from Novak...

From Ashton Kutcher to Whataburger, B.J. Novak’s shrewd feature length directorial debut quite literally comes out of left field swinging.

This film has a lot to say about our perception of things and how our biases skew how we feel. The result is a little blander than it could have been, but it ultimately works as a smart, decently written debut from Novak.

Beginning as a fast-talking comedy with something dark lurking underneath, this film sends its central character into an amusingly alien culture before shifting into a mystery thriller.
