Netflix Action Thriller Rebel Ridge Impresses With Explosive Rotten Tomatoes Score

by

As a movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share my thoughts about Netflix’s upcoming action-thriller, “Rebel Ridge.” With its jaw-dropping Rotten Tomatoes score already making waves in the film community, it seems set to be one of the top action movies this year. Currently sitting at a staggering 95% on the “Tomatometer,” critics are raving about director Jeremy Saulnier and lead actor Aaron Pierre in this story of a battle-hardened marine battling against a corrupt small town police force

Without a doubt, Chase Hutchinson from Collider has generated an extraordinary level of excitement for the game Rebel Ridge, likening its intense action to that found in blockbuster titles such as Rambo and Reacher

A tale packed with the rugged action of Rambo and the relentless vigilance of Jack Reacher, but uniquely driven by the charismatic Aaron Pierre, boldly marches in, dishes out justice, and departs with merely a few minor wounds

Meanwhile, Brian Tallerico from RogerEbert.com commends the artistic flair that filmmaker Jeremy Saulnier showcases within the action-thriller genre

As a movie enthusiast, I must say that watching “Rebel Ridge” was a breathtaking experience, serving as a testament to the sheer excitement a well-crafted genre film can bring

William Bibbiani from TheWrap expresses similar thoughts, referring to the game Rebel Ridge as an example of success when “entertainingly exciting, captivating, and motivational content” is produced with commitment

“Watching a movie similar to Rebel Ridge serves as a reminder that immersive, captivating, intellectually-challenging amusement is possible without ever taking your mind off track.”

Jeremy Saulnier & Aaron Pierre Have Produced ‘Explosive Results’ With Rebel Ridge

The critic, Robert Kojder from Flickering Myth, complimented Aaron Pierre by saying he remains unflappable in embarrassing circumstances, always appearing cool. He also noted that there’s an intense, intimidating aura around him that adds to the exciting climax of his performances. Chris Bumbray from JoBlo concurred, stating that Aaron Pierre excels in action roles and Saulnier’s work is more accessible than ever before. In short, they both consider Aaron Pierre as an impressive actor

Unfortunately, one critic from The Hollywood Reporter, Caryn James, has dampened the mood by describing Rebel Ridge as merely “competent” and “watchable.”

“The design is quite attractive, complete with stunning panoramas of the sunset-hued skyline. Regrettably, the movie itself lacks depth comparable to that horizon.”

According to Chris Evangelista from Slashfilm, there’s a difference of opinion. He actually appreciates the work of Saulnier and Pierre, emphasizing that viewers should make an effort not to let the movie “Rebel Ridge” disappear among the increasing heap of content on streaming platforms

“The movie ‘Rebel Ridge’, under the masterful hands of its director and lead actor, Saulnier and Pierre, delivers exceptional performances that have created quite a blast. Make sure not to miss out on this powerhouse collaboration as it might just fall through the gaps in Netflix’s offerings.”

Under the guidance of director Jeremy Saulnier, the film titled “Rebel Ridge” features an impressive cast including Aaron Pierre, Don Johnson, AnnaSophia Robb, David Denman, Emory Cohen, Steve Zissis, Zsane Jhe, Dana Lee, and James Cromwell.
