Destroyer's grueling narrative is as uncompromising as Nicole Kidman's central performance, which adds extra layers to a challenging film that leaves a lingering impact.
Will L Nicole Kidman plays a cringey cop in this movie. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/19/24 Full Review PA H A complex, slow-paced (like real life), magisterial telling of a tragedy with only minor tones of triumph and redemption. Not spectacular, action-packed, good-feeling-from-revenge-killing, mainstream entertainment. Not for the weak of heart and mind. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/09/24 Full Review A.L.Jude P To much dragging in some incidents and murky. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/05/24 Full Review Jelisije J A good film where it shows the consequences of one bad action from undercover police officers can destroy their own lives and the lives of the people around them. Nicole Kidman shines in this bleak, but engaging story. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/26/24 Full Review Honest D Best thing Kidman has ever done. She is unrecognizable. I have never seen her do anything remotely like this. I think that this movie should have won her an Oscar (not that i care much about Oscars. they are often given to films that i think are mainstream soulless over produced poop feasts). This movie is f***ing nuts. Action, anxiety inducing suspense, Kidman as a nihilistic lunatic who doesnt give a single ____ about anything. These people rating this movie just don't get it. They are wrong. I don't have much faith in humans these days so it doesn't surprise me that there are people that don't get this movie, But I am surprised at just how many. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/25/24 Full Review muel t Whatever is going on with Nicole Kidman's face is distracting. There's absolutely nothing of substance here. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/06/24 Full Review Read all reviews

Synopsis As a young cop, Erin Bell went under cover to infiltrate a gang in the California desert -- with tragic results. Bell continues to work as a detective for the Los Angeles Police Department, but feelings of anger and remorse leave her worn-down and consumed by guilt. When the leader of that gang suddenly re-emerges, Erin embarks on an obsessive quest to find his former associates, bring him to justice and make peace with her tortured past.
