Did You Hear About A Great New Revenge Movie?

There are some great movies that are built around the theme or revenge. Probably my favorite is Rob Roy, which starred Liam Neeson. I have considered the villain in that film to be one of the best of all history. He was truly wicked and made himself to the object of evil.

At one point in the movie he brutally violated Rob Roy's wife and left her alive to tell her husband of the vindictive act, just to provoke Roy into presenting himself for combat with a sword. His being a superior swordsman left him sure that if Roy came to face him it would mean the demise of the fugitive Roy.

But the villain did not fully measure the power of revenge. Though Rob Roy was not nearly the expert with a sword, his passion and commitment were more than enough to overcome the villain. In the climactic scene, Roy simply grabbed his opponent's sword, despite the damage to his hand, and plunged a blade into the heart of his nemesis. It was one of the most powerful scenes I have ever seen.

I was just encouraged to visit the official Sweeney Todd movie site, to see the trailer and read about the plot of the movie. Revenge is the major theme of this movie, starring Johnny Depp as a common man who has everything dear to him taken by a man of powerful position. But he uses a razor to "straiten" everything out! I can hardly wait to see the movie to open, on December 21, so I can compare the power this film to that of Rob Roy!

In the mean time I will visit Sweeney Todd on MySpace to get more information!
