Rage
143 Minutes, Not Rated (but R)
Written by Michael J. Kospiah
Directed by John Balazs
Synopsis:
After a violent home invasion leaves mild-mannered husband Noah (Matt Theo) in a coma and his wife Madeline (Hayley Beveridge) deeply traumatised, Noah awakens to find out that one of the attackers is still on the loose.
As Noah and the nearly-despondent Madeline try to move on with their lives, Madeline spots the attacker, opening up a twisted tale of brutal revenge where all isn’t as it seems. Along the way, a scarred and seasoned Detective John Bennett (Richard Norton) fights his own inner demons whilst trying to solve the crime.
This one is actually pretty good. It’s depiction of the trauma of a home invasion/sexual assault, violence, death, infidelity, etc….
It’s really well cast and performed, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to you to watch.
Except…
Always and “except,” isn’t there?
The ultimate conclusion of this tense whodoneit left a bad taste in my mouth, but if I tell you why, it will ruin what is, ultimately, a very good and entertaining flick.
So watch it, enjoy it, and let me know if you have the same issue with the ending as I did.
Really, I want to know.
