Rebel Ridge

I understand the hype around <I>Rebel Ridge</i>, given its great cast and storyline, but what I felt I watched was different than many of the other reviews on Letterboxd, IMDb and elsewhere.

<I>Rebel Ridge</i> is an action film that was mostly missing the action elements, while providing us with both acting and dialog that was unenthusiastic and monotone. In addition, the action presented was mostly unnecessary, and then the film just comes to a quick end.

Aaron Pierre and Don Johnson were well-cast in their roles, but, for the entirety of the film, Pierre was still in <I><A HREF="https://letterboxd.com/film/old-2021/">Old</A></i> form, and it just didn't fit well throughout.
