DVD review of Eastern Promises
DVD Times has in depth review of EP, with great photos.
"...the driver is a much more subtle and elegant turn by an unrecognisable Viggo Mortensen. Mortensen is a revelation, for an actor who has graced rubbish like A Perfect Murder as a second banana clothes horse, and he gives an excellent, enigmatic performance that shows up Cassel as a scenery chewer and holds the centre of this film brilliantly. The film relies on his character being able to be seen as both kindly and having the capacity for violence, and the integrity he brings to his Nikolai is never less than convincing or compelling."
