In a Better World (Two-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo) Reviews

In a Better World, the winner of the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film for 2010, was originally released in Denmark as Hævnen ("Revenge"). While it is not entirely clear why the title was changed for the film's American release, it is quite possible that Sony felt that "Revenge" would lead audiences to believe that the film is a thriller. Ironically, the original title gives a better description of the film, which questions whether violence is ever an effective and appropriate response to violence. There is no easy answer, and in the end director Susanne Bier leaves it to the viewer to answer for himself. The film is provocative, well-acted and beautifully photographed.
