eastern promises
some violence with lots of blood, a poor little innocent russian girl who gets raped and dies giving birth, bad greedy backward turks who is ready to do anything for money and power, some body chopping and this is another film where the main female character is suffering from a loss of a child. most of her actions if not all are driven by her emotions. i.e. she is pretty stupid.
if you don't mind the problems with the script the film is ok to watch. naomi watts' acting is good as usual.
