Every DC Comics Theatrical Movie, Ranked From Worst To Best

#8 A History of Violence

John Wagner’s graphic novel through DC imprints Paradox Press and Vertigo might seem somewhat out of place for a list like this. It’s a well-made crime thriller praised for its well-realized characters, especially Viggo Mortensen’s performance as Tom Stall. But what actually makes it a movie so believably inclusive of the DC brand power is its focus on how small events can have massive consequences, and its deceptively pulpy story is a looker as well.
