Occhio per occhio

The notorious kingpin Antonio Padín (Xan Cejudo) checks in a nursing home under the care of the nurse Mario (Luis Tosar), whose wife Julia (María Vázquez) is pregnant. When Padín's son Toño (Ismael Martínez) and Kiko (Enric Auquer) make a deal with the Colombian cartel without the agreement of their father, they are double crossed by the Chinese mafia and have to pay a large amount to the cartel. Meanwhile Mario plots revenge against Padín, since his younger brother was a victim of his drugs. When Padín learns Mario's intention, he also plots revenge against Mario.

"Quien a hierro mata", a.k.a. "Eye for an Eye", is a solid thriller directed by Paco Plaza. The story of revenge is very well disclosed and the conclusion is heartbreaking. The performances are magnificent but the film is not for everyone. My vote is seven.
