Summary

Matt Turner, a partner at Nanite Capital, finds himself subject to the type of extortion where, if he doesn't hand over 200 million Euros, he, his children, and others will die.

What Is “Retribution” Rated And Why?

“Retribution” is Rated R due to occasional profanity, and vehicular violence which leads to minced bodies, blood, and even injured children.

Noted Characters and Cast

Matt (Liam Neeson) and Heather (Embeth Davidtz) are the lead adult characters, featuring Jack Champion and Lilly Aspell as the children of Matt's character.

Review Summary

Liam Neeson may very well play the type of character he has since 2008's "Taken" but with being trapped within a car, there is more focus on his performance as an actor than action star.

Who Is this For?

Those who love Liam Neeson as an actor and know, similar to Tom Cruise or Will Smith, while known for movies with guns and explosions, those are tools not crutches for him.

In "The Commuter," Neeson is also performing in a confined space, with money and death a possibility based on his decisions.
