MOVIE REVIEW

Don't mess with Colin Firth, because he will mess with you. That's the message (well, not really) in The Railway Man, a drama about a former British Army officer who  discovers that the man responsible for much of his brutal treatment in a Japanese prisoner camp during World War II is still alive. Nicole Kidman also stars, because why not.
