What an intense, brooding and violent movie this is....but so well done. Viggo Mortensen turns in an unusual and outstanding performance in the lead role. I will never forget his character. This is a dark movie and in some ways reminded me more of violent movies made about Nazi cruelty in WWII than violent mob movies. If you have a stomach for extreme violence in this kind of setting then I am confident you will appreciate the story and performances in Eastern Promises. Not for the young or faint of heart. Mature over 21's that have a basic idea of what they will be seeing will be the best audience.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This movie just didn't convince me. They were going for this mob meets mob Godfather, and came up with boredom. Skip it folks!

Great movie with some serious twist and turns. Top notch acting from Viggo Mortensen and Naomi Watts. I wasn't big on Viggo in "History of Violence". But I have to give him his props in this movie. He definitely should get a couple of Oscar nominations for best actor. Also you'll need a strong stomach for this movie. You are warned...lol
Yes, I recommend this movie.
