If you loved Cold Pursuit, try Absolution

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Absolution has roughly 5.4× fewer votes than Cold Pursuit — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Hans Petter Moland, and they sit in Action / Crime territory. If that's the register that drew you to Cold Pursuit, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Absolution is

South Boston. Winter chill. A cough. A worn-out enforcer gets bad news from a doctor, then tries to make peace with his grown kids. His mob ties, however, complicate his shot at redemption. Moland's fatalistic crime yarn plays it cool.
