Revelation Road 3: The Black Rider

The acting is great, the plot is great, everything about it is awesome. Only an atheist would have a problem with this movie because of it's Christian content.

If you enjoyed the first two Revelation Road films, the third is worth a watch. It's not a perfect movie, but it is a fun ride that explores the aftermath of the Day.

It's B movie fun with solid writing and solid performances all around especially from James Denton.

The only weaknesses are some of the vfx in one scene early on, but it really does get better the deeper in you get. Bradley Dorsey's performance as a redneck opportunist selling human meat as real meat is my favorite of his yet! But don't worry it's not graphic. It's safe for younger viewers 10+.

The action is on par with the first two. Some great brawls keep the pace brisk. It reminds me of the first Mad Max in many scenes.

Overall, if you enjoyed the first two or enjoy post-apocalyptic films this is worth the couple hours.

The third and currently last of the Revelation Road films has star/producer David A.R. White now firmly established as a Christian road warrior n the best tradition of Mel Gibson.

The bad guys who control a nice chunk of Southern California led by James Denton try to make a deal with him to bring them Robert Gossett who they're told is a subversive.

Gossett is certainly that. In fact he has a specific role mentioned in Revelations and the Deity has White earmarked for a part in helping Gossett on hi mission.

For a while these end time movies were becoming a cottage industry. This one is no better r worse than some.

Maybe David A.R. white will have the lack Rider ride yet again.

The acting sometimes feels rigid, and some of the extent of situations seems unrealistic without additional context. Between the 3 (current) films, there's also a lot of filler with little plot progression. That trend continues in The Black Rider.

In order to keep up with the fight scenes of the first two movies, a lot of needless filler was added, pushing most of the real plot to the second half of the film. The fight scenes also weren't very well-paced and were like long breaks from the plot instead. They could learn a thing or two from Marvel on how to keep things flowing without the awkwardness.

The religious message is prevalent, though at times used with questionable accuracy. As with the first two movies, the Christian message is awkwardly juxtaposed with a protagonist with a penchant for killing. Though I have to give props for at least addressing the issue, it seems to be completely forgotten for the rest of the film.

The main turning point, both as the MacGuffin and in the tone, is the Shepherd. This is the only main character who doesn't seem to be awkwardly juxtaposed with the message of the movie - though he's also far from an action star.

I love ruminating on the book this movie is (loosely) based on as well as movies that attempt to interpret / depict the events. Though not quite cringe-worthy, the movie just doesn't have much going for it due to feeling like a single, stretched-out episode. When the series is complete, an abridged version might be better worth watching.

Its really bad,the acting is bad the budget is bad,there is no plot except Christian hidden agenda feeding you reason to become Christian. the locations are seemingly just random normal places,there is no mood no way to tell this is the "apocalypse" its basically regular people walking around in their everyday clothing with some ski goggles or a scarf.

the plot is so bad you don't even care,the characters are less developed then regular commercial. its pretty obvious some church or movement funded this b movie so they don't even care about acting plots or anything.

you start to fiddle with other stuff while watching because your brain is simply refusing to take it in.

b movies can be bad in a good way but this just bad bad.
