Redeemer

Ok, first of all: this is big nonsense(!) movie made just for entertaining and I spent 4Eur on prime to see people get beaten and killed by other :)

3 * for that! -1 for cutting best scenes Review: Marko Zaror looks great, he's not Scott Adkins and there is no reach for undisputed series. 2 * for him.

Plot: There is no plot.

Film: Film is quite straight and nothing really happens. Unfortunately Zaror wasn't allowed to say more than like 3 words for 90 min.

Next time: more Zaror, less nothing. +1 * to save this chance

Since Boondock Saints this isn't the first attempt to capture that formula. But this Spanish effort does have something in or rather up its sleeves that other knockoffs probably didn't have: decent stunts and action sequences to support the rather predictable story. Though it does surprise in the end I reckon.

Whatever you think about redemption or if you're religious or not, the movie tries to cover a lot of bases. But never loses focus of what makes it great or at least good. The main actor may not have so say much with words, which may play in his favor, letting his actions speak louder than words. Whether you see him as anti-hero or something of a saint is up to you as the viewer. It's not the only challenge the movie gives you ... the humor is questionable for some I guess, but I did like it

First of i want to make it clear that i only watch this movie because the main character Marko Zaror will face off with Scott Adkins one of my favorite martial artist/actor in the upcoming Savage Dog and you guys know what this movie indeed a little surprise.I may not familiar with some of Marko older stuff but with this movie i finally know what this guy capable of and it bloody awesome.With the title like Redeemer you may think it had a heavily religious aspect but in the other hand it quite a violent action movie with a very depressing theme.The action scene is very well choreographed with some of the best hitting sound i see in this kind of movie,every time Marko show up on screen his charm and badassness always caught me off guard when he slay enemies room to room leaving a bloody mess behind.The negative for this movie is although he really good at fighting but he terribly at cover up the trace lead up to the death of many people he saved which i find very dumb and stupid.The bad guys is also very annoying when the movie always cut back to a American drug dealer that keep making unfunny joke and a guy that support to be the big thread to the main character but he barely show up until the final fight and in some flashback scene to remind the viewer how bad he is

It is what it is.

An action flick, with some backstory.

If you enjoy martial arts, kick some ass, don't worry about the names, style of movies, you'll enjoy this.

The religious element is heavy-handed at times, but, no problem, that's the conflict element of the plot.

Worth the 99 minutes, which is more than I can say for many movies in this vein, or other, more self-righteous, holier-than-thou releases. (See what I did there?)

People can't just sit back and enjoy a damn movie anymore... its sad. If your looking for some good action, then for sure watch this one! If your a scott adkins fan or a martial arts fan at all, then I'm sure your gonna enjoy this one!
