Cold Pursuit (2019)

Nominated as Best Action Film by the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films, Cold Pursuit stars Oscar nominee Liam Neeson (Taken, The Commuter) as small-town snowplough driver Nels Coxman, whose life is turned upside down after the death of his son in suspicious circumstances. Nels’s quest for the truth changes him from mild-mannered model citizen to ruthless vigilante as he takes on psychotic drug lord Viking and his henchmen. So Liam Neeson doing what he does best, then. 

A remake of the 2014 Norwegian film In Order of Disappearance by the same director (Hans Petter Moland), Cold Pursuit also stars Oscar winner Laura Dern (Big Little Lies, Marriage Story).

Listed among Rotten Tomatoes’ Best Action Films of 2019, Cold Pursuit is “Taken on ice… pure revenge-movie escapism,” according to Rolling Stone.
