Film Review: The Reckoning

The reckoning

The youngest of the three LaPaglia boys (Jonathon) is Detective Robbie Green. He is called out to the murder of his colleague Jason (played by Luke, the eldest of the three Hemsworth brothers). He recovers a data card from the crime scene which reveals that teenagers Rachel (Hanna Mangan-Lawrence) and AJ (Alex Williams last seen as a young Julian Assange) are settling the score for the death of Rachel’s sister. The video footage documents the teens’ steps as they confront drug sellers, drug suppliers and even cops, and Green and his colleague Jane Pearson (Viva Bianca) follow the trail which is littered with dead bodies. Shot in Perth, this intense film is full of biblical references about vengeance and has already won a Best Director Award at the British Independent Film Festival.
