Trivia
"This film is very special to me," says Ron Perlman. "It pits a cold, dark, explosively violent world, filled with unspeakable histories, against the gravitational forces of long forgotten loved ones, making its reluctant hero do anything to protect the innocent. Anything! (7/19/2023)"

Goofs
When Peter calls his father, he tells him that Delfi "likes to put grapes in her cereal. The red ones, not the green ones." But, near the end of the film, Vic tells Peter's father "You know, for what it's worth, your boy died thinking not about himself but about his little girl. How she liked green grapes."

RON PERLMAN DELIVERS!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed the movie from start to finish. All the actors were believable and the action kept me glued to the screen. The relationship of the grandfather and granddaughter serves to give the grandfather a chance at making a past memory with his son a chance for redemption. It was engaging from the beginning and the characters had dimensions. A bit of fighting action and plenty of violence, too! Don't let that scare you away, just concentrate on the story. The story has been done before, but with Ron Perlman's and the supporting cast's acting, it' is still entertaining and satisfying. If you're looking for a movie which will definitely be underseen and underrated, see The Baker! You' ll be glad you did!
