    My last film of the year was Rebel Ridge and what a goddamn pleasure it was. I dunno how this diamond slipped through the generic sludge of the Netflix process, but somehow it did. Simultaneously the best action film and the best legal thriller I've seen for months.

    I don't think anyone would be brave enough to make it, but we really need a Rebel Ridge/Rambo style movie where a soldier goes on a rampage after ICE kidnaps his wife

    THE RIP totally rips. Really tasty tough guy shtick backed up by some confident filmmaking. The ideal Netflix movie, in that it would feel at home on cable with commercial breaks (see also: REBEL RIDGE, CARRY-ON). Good enough to get to me click the little heart on Letterboxd. #filmsky

    and another thing about one of the best movies of 2024 "Rebel Ridge" - when the action kicked in, the movie appeared to stay at 24fps (as opposed to shooting at a lower frame rate to speed up action), didn't drop any frames to make punches land harder, and the shutter angle remained consistent...

    Rewatching it, I'm convinced REBEL RIDGE may be the best Netflix original movie *and* one of the best movies about modern America. It's insane they're not promoting the hell of it in as LANTERNS airs. They'll regret it when Aaron Pierre is cast as James Bond.

    If you're looking for a banger of a new movie tonight, try REBEL RIDGE, the rare Netflix original movie that totally sticks the landing. BLUE RUIN/GREEN ROOM director Jeremy Saulnier is back with a practical-effects, down-to-earth thriller that's more or less a modern FIRST BLOOD, and I loved it.

    This was the twist of a great movie about corrupt cops ::: spoiler movie name In Rebel Ridge, the protagonist, a black guy, is trying to get a bag of bail money back from a corrupt police department that enacted civil forfeiture. It often cuts away to the one black woman in the dept who has to drive a shittier car than the rest. Then, we learn there’s an informant to IA inside the dept trying to bring them down. The protagonist figures it’s the black woman. He’s wrong; she betrays him, trying…

    REBEL RIDGE: v good, but what opens feeling (deliberately) like a politically incendiary film ends up feeling more of a squib. Saulnier takes pains to make clear, through an exposition-heavy conspiracy plot, that he's not blaming cops as a whole, & even obliquely argues for More police funding.

    Big props to Jeremy Saulnier who wrote and directed Rebel Ridge. Recommend. The film covers so much of what is wrong with US policing, in an action packed drama movie. It also covers the evil and racism in the system vs the individual. I don't think a cop said the N-Word once the whole film.

    REBEL RIDGE (2024): Love the pragmatic form of corruption present in this film (“We’re breaking the law because we need to turn a profit”). It frames police corruption as subject to bigger social and economic driving forces without letting its villains off the hook for their miscarriages of justice.

    Final thoughts: Rebel Ridge is an intelligent and taut southern neo-noir film. An ex-Marine battles corrupt cops while trying to help his cousin, aided by a fearless legal-aid lawyer. It contains the cliches of the genre yet plays them so well as to be exciting and interesting. Well done. #hatm
