2 Years Later, Liam Neeson’s Brutal Revenge Thriller Becomes a Must-Watch on Netflix
Liam Neeson's 2023 Irish action thriller *In the Land of Saints and Sinners* is set to hit Netflix in the United States from 6 August 2026, bringing renewed attention to a film that performed modestly at the box office but earned strong reviews from critics. The streaming release comes as Neeson enjoys a busy run of high-profile projects, making it a timely opportunity for audiences to revisit an overlooked entry in his recent filmography.
Directed by Robert Lorenz from a screenplay by Mark Michael McNally and Terry Loane, the film took just $3.2 million during a limited cinema run in 2023 but was praised by critics, including an 8/10 review from Collider that highlighted its blend of drama, thriller and action. It also stars Kerry Condon, Ciarán Hinds and Desmond Eastwood. The news follows a mixed 2025 for Neeson, spanning the poorly received Ice Road: Vengeance and the acclaimed comedy The Naked Gun, and precedes a busy slate of upcoming releases, including 4 Kids Walk Into a Bank in August, The Mongoose in October, and the thriller The Fix alongside Zachary Levi.
