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

Maxxxine (2024):
Maxxxine is a huge step down from it's prequels and serves as an underwhelming conclusion to the 'X' trilogy.
Story goes like this a porn star and an aspiring actress Maxine Minx finally gets her big break. Parallel to this plotline a mysterious killer stalks celebs. Will Maxine face the stalker and confront her past?
Negatives - Boring narration that goes nowhere, wooden characters
Maxxxine although shot beautifully, it doesn't have that flair, sex & violence appeal of X (2022) or it's wildly imaginative prequel PEARL (2022).
And a wonderful waste of stacked talented cast including Mia Goth, Kevin Bacon & Giancarlo esposito- for that crime itself Maxxxine earns a 1.5/5 from me

Deadpool & Wolverine (2024):
A less funny, less entertaining sequel of Deadpool series, relying completely on references at MCU, inconsequential cameos, and the charisma of the leads.
Similar thing our thala Venkat prabhu did with GOAT.
Usual multiverse shenanigans and gimmicks doesn't help either
Avoidable 2/5
