(Small semi-spoiler) Given the cinematography, restrained direction and acting, and the almost universal issue shared by fathers and sons who sort out their similarities and differences, finding either genuine affection (as in this case) or mere genetic relation...and the tragedy felt when the former occurs far too late..... I do not know how anyone who is ever deeply affected by film can rate "Perdition" below sometphing like 7 (and that low only because of some paticular taste or expectation unmet; ie a viewer who cannot accept Tom Hanks as a hitman). I initially chose 10, comparing the uniform excellence of nearly every aspect to nearly every major film of this era, but I realize thatp's a bit prejudicial as well, since I am a tremendous fan of Mendes, Hanks, Newman, Law and I am fascinated with 30's Americana. Things as possibly mundane to those who do not share this interest, like the very authentic diner restaurant, fascinate me.
I'll drop that idealistic 10 to 9. Anything lower than five is unimaginable to me.. But to each....etc etc

"the shooting scenes were cool"?!

This movie is a little over your head, pal.

Yes, I think its abit high. Its not that bad but certainly not that good. It doesnt have a replay value for me. An ok movie to see once.
I wanted to rate it 6.5 but Im generous enough to give it a 7

It's more of a 7.1 movie, good looking, but nothing out of the ordinary.
