content: While not without its flaws, The Aggression Scale was surprisingly entertaining. It starts out like every other mobster-wants-his-stolen-money-back B-movie, but this time there's a twist. You see, when they target this one family they think may be holding the money, they didn't reckon on their little disturbed son, fresh home from a psychiatric institution. You see, the little kid has had some issues with violence in his past ...The movie is clearly low-budget, and the quality of the directing varies from abyssal to brilliant, and then back again. The acting is variable, with some actors clearly more skilled than others. Yet the ingenuity and sheer violent energy of the movie doesn't fail to delight. If this is the director's first feature film (and I suspect that it is), I can't wait to see what he comes up with when he's more seasoned!I recommend this film to anybody who's not particularly squeamish ...
