What to watch: Is this Liam Neeson's last action film?
Briefly

In 'Absolution', Liam Neeson delivers a committed performance as a gangster seeking to make amends, but the film's clichéd plot undermines its emotional depth.

'Hangdog' presents a comedic take on relocation and personal growth, with Walt's unexpected adventures in a quirky Maine town highlighting his journey to adapt.
Despite its recycled material, 'Absolution’s' grim aesthetics and characters evoke a certain grit, yet the storytelling's obviousness lessens its potential impact.
