The best aspect of "Triage," an intense, brooding drama about a traumatized war photographer recovering from violent experiences in Kurdistan, stems from Colin Farrell's commitment to it.
The actor lost 40 pounds to play the character of Mark, whose memories from abroad mar his life back in Dublin. Farrell constantly appears like he's on the edge of a psychological void.
The movie, directed by Bosnian filmmaker Denis Tanovic, includes drop-dead stunning visuals of the Kurdistan landscape to match the evocative images that Mark seeks to capture.
Unfortunately, it suffers from an uneven screenplay that fails to make Mark's post-war recovery period seem credible.
