No celebrities, no special effects, no death-defying stunts. What’s his secret?
Equality, social issues and technological breakthroughs in cinema are of course good, but sometimes you just want to watch a good old action movie.
A movie where the center of the plot will be primarily the plot and a well-written character, for whom you will want to keep your fingers crossed without stopping watching for a minute.
Jeremy Saulnier offers a similar experience with a painting called ‘Rebel Ridge’.
After a long hiatus, the director returned with a remarkable project that was rated 95% “fresh” by critics on Rotten Tomatoes and topped Netflix’s worldwide movie charts.
In the first three days of its release, the film was watched 68 million hours, the highest figure in recent times.
The action thriller tells the story of Terry Richmond, who comes to a provincial town to bail his cousin out of jail. His plans are ruined when the police confiscate his bail.
Realizing he is not dealing with lawmen, but with corrupt criminals, the hero takes matters into his own hands. And his opponents do not know that they are challenging a former Marine.
“Original script, brilliant direction, dialogue, pace, great Don Johnson and Aaron Pierre!” – admired one of the reviewers.
But these are not all the reasons for success.
Action, suspense and other elements of the story are so well balanced that the 2 hour and 11 minute story flies by in a few moments, according to viewers.
