Big Rage

I absolutely loved this movie and had the pleasure of catching the premiere at the CINEMA DIVERSE FESTIVAL!!! I can't say enough about it and was blown away to see an action film of this magnitude there. I was pulled in right from the start and so fortunate to catch it on the big screen! That's the beauty of discovering films like this at festivals and taking note of wonderful actors/filmmakers/ SOON-TO-BE-STARS!!!

This film kept me on the edge of my seat for the whole duration!! The acting, music, storyline, cinematography... everything came together in this gem!! Cult-Classic?!!

I now must go explore the Salton Sea!! What an odd but fascinating place!!

I hope to see the cast in more films and hoping for a BIG RAGE 2!!

Unbelievable! Must be seen to be believed. Rivals the worst dialogue and directing since the late great Ed Wood.

All of the performances are so uniformly awful that it would be unkind to single anyone out. It is even possible that some of them could act with a competent director and a halfway literate script.

I was attracted to this movie because the Salton Sea is a fascinating phenomenon that I don't recall being used in another movie. The lithium angle sounded promising. And the absurdly high rating was misleading.

I suspect the positive ratings and reviews all came from friends of the director, writer, and actors.

It could become a cult favorite like The Room. See it for laughs.

I saw this movie in Palm Springs at the LGBTQ film festival.

It was the best film I saw! The storyline,writing,cast and cinematography were exceptional for any genre. I loved it. This movie had it all. I found it to be humorous, heartfelt, action packed, aesthetically pleasing and never a dull moment. The cast were a very complementary ensemble. Each character seemed to enhance the film in multiple ways. I guess by now you can see I really enjoyed this film! Kind of a "Brokeback Mountain meets "Rocky" with some humor. I wasn't bored for one minute.

The leading stars of the movie were hot as hell and very talented as well. I expect to see them more in the future.

I was intrigued by this movie's description as being a "gay" action movie and also starring one of my favourite models on Instagram (Fabian Arnold). Unfortunately, this movie fell beneath even my lowest expectations. Fabian is beautiful and looks incredible as always, but he really can't act at all - to be honest, neither can anybody else in the cast. The plot is completely nonsensical and the movie goes absolutely nowhere after almost two hours. Production values are pretty much non-existent, the movie is riddled with continuity errors and looks like it was shot on an iPhone with a bunch of filters. On top of that, the description of this being a "gay action movie" isn't even accurate, as the gay part of the plot is awkwardly shoehorned in near the end of the movie - it's as if the filmmakers realized this was the only way they could grab an audience for this movie (the "gay action movie" market isn't very competitive).

My rating is probably way too generous - this movie isn't really worth your time at all. Hopefully, somebody with more talent and a budget can put together an actual "gay action movie" at some point.

Note to HereTV!: a couple of hot guys and some awkwardly staged fight scenes does NOT make a "gay noir thriller". You need an actual plot, at least moderately engaging characters, and a screenwriter who can write human-sounding dialogue. Alas, this heavily-promoted "thriller" has none of those. As much as we might enjoy seeing Fabian Arnold running around shirtless and (very briefly) kissing another hunky guy, that doesn't make for an actual gay thriller. A thread-bare attempt at a plot, and bleak/fugly settings in the Southern California desert. Once again, 2 hours of my life I'll never get back. Thanks for nothing, HereTV.
