A happily married couple becomes unlikely friends with a man whose life has been marked by chaos and violence in this drama from Austria. Alex (Johannes Krisch) is a small-time criminal who, after a stretch in prison, finds himself working for Konecny (Hanno Pöschl), who runs a grimy house of prostitution; unknown to Konecny, Alex is also involved with Tamara (Irina Potapenko), one of his whores. Wanting to raise some quick cash, Alex robs a bank in a nearby small town and hides out on a farm owned by his grandfather (Hannes Thanheiser) while he waits for the heat to cool down. Alex tries to keep a low profile in the country, and he's troubled by boredom and despair, but his mood brightens when he strikes up a friendship with Susanne (Ursula Strauss), a cheerful and generous woman who lives nearby. But Alex's new friend happens to be married to Robert (Andreas Lust), a member of the local police force. Revanche was screened as an official entry at the 2008 Berlin Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Some New Trailer For Revanche
New Review For Movie Revanche
A surprisingly unruffled tale of love, thievery, murder and revenge.Stephen Cole-Globe and Mail
The plot might have yielded a generic erotic thriller if Revanche were made by rougher hands. Instead it becomes something more sophisticated thanks to the efforts of writer-director Götz Spielmann and a superb cast.
Jason Anderson-Toronto Star
There's real biblical tragedy, and redemption, in Spielmann's fine, sad, suspenseful film.
Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer
A film of carefully strained pulp and rigorously controlled intrigue, the Austrian revenge drama Revanche, which is really about the dividing line between vengeance and forgiveness, belongs to a neo-noir universe where all the classical genre laws apply.
Michael Phillips-Chicago Tribune
Writer-director Gotz Spielmann (Antares) avoids the clutter and manipulation of most thrillers, escalating tension almost solely through the characters' turbulent emotions.
Andrea Gronvall-Chicago Reader
Revanche involves a rare coming together of a male's criminal nature and a female's deep needs, entwined with a first-rate thriller.
Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times
Impressive noir film that befits Greek tragedy as it travels deep into sublime territory.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Austria's nominee for the Best Foreign Language Oscar is a precise and effective psychological thriler
Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com
Here justice moves slowly, and in mysterious ways - and Spielmann's final reckoning of accounts, though unexpected, is subtly satisfying.
Anton Bitel-Eye for Film
Gotz Speilmann's film is well-made, aptly characterised and seems frighteningly true to life.
Derek Malcolm-This is London
More character study than thriller (the title means "revenge"), this slow-burning Austrian film effectively holds our interest with its unpredictable plot, even though it's not easy to care where it's going.
Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall
Revanche (French for 'revenge') is that rarest of things -- a thoughtful thriller.
Philip Kemp-Total Film
It unfurls at a slow, measured pace, and director Götz Spielmann uses the plot's Noir-esque trappings as a jumping-off point for an absorbing morality tale about the way life never turns out as planned. It's bleak, but in a good way.
Alistair Harkness-Scotsman
A modern fable which draws broad parallels and depicts profound moral quandaries with an elegance and frankness rare in cinema.
Christopher Long-Movie Metropolis
It has a distinctive sort of Euro-hardcore sheen, mainly due to the superbly lucid, diamond-hard cinematography from Martin Gschlacht.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
It's a slow-burning Austrian thriller with no stars, no special effects and, by the looks of it, almost no budget. But sometimes a little goes a long way.
David Edwards-Daily Mirror [UK]
Aided by a terrific performance from Krisch and an exceptional ensemble cast, Revanche is a beautifully crafted psychological thriller that should firmly place Götz Spielmann on the world cinema map.
Lee Griffiths-Little White Lies
The film exerts a steady grip without charging head-first into thriller territory: there's a cool, cosmic irony to the way fate wheels around.
Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph
As good a thriller as you'll see this year.
Ian Freer-Empire Magazine
Tauntingly slow but hauntingly shot (and edited with crisp abruptness), it was a deserving nominee for Best Foreign Film at last year's Oscars.
Leo Robson-Financial Times
This riveting study of desire, isolation, guilt and redemption bears the influence of both Robert Bresson and Michael Haneke, and proves surprisingly optimistic in its assessment of human weakness.
David Parkinson-Radio Times
From pacing and composition to its frank attitude to sex and wonderfully open performances, the film is a largely pretension-free zone. A fine lesson in the art of storytelling.
Elliott Noble-Sky Movies
It's a truly refreshing movie that justly received an Oscar nomination for Best Foreign Language Film.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid
The film's first half uses a restrained style to build interest, while the latter, as clever in its construction as it is human, elevates the characters of this potential potboiler.
Matthew Sorrento-Bright Lights Film Journal
feels like the product of a master craftsman
James Kendrick-Q Network Film Desk
... all about the emotional reverberations of loss and guilt and rage and blame and the illogic of how it unravels lives.
