Nicolas Winding Refn's best work since Pusher. No doubt.
This is just as well done, but in it's own rights. The actor goes out of his way to adapt the mind and the physique of the character he is portraying. And the director goes out of his way to setup a scenery that makes Hardy's performance even more credible.
I love this movie, particularly because of the intense feel of the story and the actor who portrays it. Tom Hardy delivers the performance of his career and so does Refn. A big kudos to them both.
This is one of those movies, where those who get the point won't be hesitating to give it a 5/5 or a 10/10.
