Rebel Ridge (2024)

Comes from the highly talented Jeremy Saulnier, Rebel Ridge is a highly underwhelming action thriller which had all the bullets and checks loaded in the cartridge but somehow couldn't fire.............

So a black man comes to a town full of racist cops to bail his brother out. Confrontation with cops ensues and how he gets back at them is the plot.

It had a perfect setup in first act, but loses much of it's steam and momentum by 2nd act & 3rd act with an uninteresting subplot with a lawyer and a confusing conspiracy plot.

Jermiah's previous works Blue ruin & Green room, if I remember were terrific thrillers... Rebel ridge doesn't match up to that

2.5/5
