Featured review
A poor man's Taxi Driver for 2019
Reading through the reviews here so far, we mostly have the 1-star rants that could have been written by Ronnie himself, and the 10-star reviews by the equally-pathetic 'woke' morons on the opposite political extreme. The filmmaker knew the title and subject matter itself would provoke this reaction, and for that alone I hope this cheap trick doesn't pay off.
As for the film itself, we have a modern-day poor man's imitation of Taxi Driver set in LA. The protagonist has none of the coolness of DeNiro's Bickle, and is instead made as pathetic as possible to caricature the most extreme MAGA buffoons. The character, worldbuilding and plot lack all subtlety - with more restrained writing and character-building this could have been a 7 or 8 star movie, but as it is it's too on the nose in its political message and Ronnie too thinly-developed for the movie to have a lasting impact.
It's a shame the filmmakers didn't have the skill and subtlety to pull this one off, because us kind-of-twisted loner white guys love movies about twisted loner white guys, and not too many get made.
