The Hong Kong thriller, “Vengeance” reminded me why I love the crime genre and specifically revenge films. By putting us in the shoes of the bereaved, these films test our emotions and moral boundaries amidst violence. They expose us to our deepest, darkest capabilities. Unfortunately, “Vengeance” does not entirely succeed in that regard.
