Review of Rage

Rage (1997)
1/10
Poor script ruins it all
14 November 2020
The film is technically well made, though some of the editing is not great. The cast is competent, and the only real problem is the script.This film doesn't know what it is or what tone it wants to assume. The motivations of the protagonists remain largely obscure and often defy belief. Just as the characters seem close to having an interesting conversation, the screenwriter seems to run out of ideas and ends it before any thing meaningful is uttered. It all end with a ridiculous shootout, with some poorly placed comedic elements and a baffling finale where nothing makes any sense at all. The film's greatest sin is that we never really learn anything about the protagonists that we didn't assume at the very start. So why did we have to endure all the violence and abuse?
