With this taut adult revenge thriller, director Campbell returns with his usual studied energy to the scene of one of his early successes - the 1985 BBC television series that helped make his name. Gibson is entrancing as a Boston detective investigating the murder of his activist daughter, and as he grunts his way through conspiracies and cover-ups, he soon realises that the personal may just be about to become the apocryphal.
