Cold Pursuit (2019)

In the township of Kehoe in the Colorado Rocky Mountains, against a backdrop of five-metre snows and glacial waterfalls, a snowplow driver seeks grisly revenge on those responsible for his son's death, and as in Harry Brown - because that's who this unlikely vigilante reminds you of, a snowplow-driving Harry Brown - there's a grim satisfaction to be gotten from watching smug druglords receiving their comeuppance from an unlikely avenger, but the movie makes you contend with a snowstorm of Fargo-style detail -the background details and idiosyncracies of oddball characters - that for the middle two-thirds of the movie, sends the plot and fun into hibernation.

★★☆☆☆
