Riders of Justice Reviews
Riders of Justice is a thoughtful, compassionate affair, the kind you remember missing as you experience it. You feel safe in its hands, even as it careens towards fates that feel inevitable and horrifying.
| Original Score: 5/5 | Jul 5, 2024
For a films shot like prestige 온라인카지노추천 that is dour and tense, he draws a large family of compelling characters. And that makes Riders of Justice worth giving consideration beyond an opening night film — the art of the hangout movie lives, after all...

...the violence inflicted by co-conspirators on each other – be the emotional or literal socks to the jaw – registers somewhere between hilarity and pathos. There is no room for superheroes here – human folly is far more interesting

Riders of Justice is storytelling at its best, and one of the year’s best films.
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Sep 18, 2023
Mads can do no wrong
| Jul 26, 2023
Over two decades, Jensen became a master of telling twisted, absurd, deeply human stories about the strangest situations men can find themselves in by chance. Riders of Justice fits right in.

Mads does a really brilliant job in bringing this character to life. Regardless of his emotional disconnect he has for himself and people around him, we still connect with him because of his performance.
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Apr 11, 2023
I was worried it would be too heavy but there are definitely moments of levity via the lovable misfits we learn to love along the way.

[Anders Thomas Jensen] vindicates new masculinity: one that doesn't obligate us to be perfect machines and providers, but beings open to mistakes, experimentation, comprehension, weakness, and emotions. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Dec 16, 2022
You never truly know where Riders of Justice is going to go next, from both a tone and plot standpoint, which is just how Jensen likes it.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 22, 2022
Yes, the movie has good action, good laughs, and a steely, grizzled Mikkelsen. But it’s the attention it gives to its themes (coping with death and loss, making sense of tragedy, coincidence versus fate) that really sets the movie apart.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 17, 2022
Riders of Justice is not to be missed. Now we need to find Mikkelsen some English language leading roles.

...aside from the hefty action and dark comedy, what really stands out from this film is its grief component.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Jun 27, 2022
An engaging yet surprisingly funny tale about trauma, empathy, and loss that never lets you forget the path that giving into your pain can take you down, and how the cycle never ends unless you work to stop it.

A major example of how to take rewarding genre cinema tropes and load them with new meaning... [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 4/5 | May 18, 2022
As an action comedy I'm taken by surprise by its wacky premise about accidental vigilantes. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 7/10 | May 14, 2022
The title and posters for Riders of Justice suggest a Taken-style action flick, which this certainly isn't. It is, however, a thoughtful comedy about those who are left behind by tragedy, and how the numbers don't always add up to something meaningful.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 3, 2022
I went in expecting a cool action flick, but I was surprised at how funny this was and, dare I say, even a little profound with the concept of coincidences and the butterfly effect of events.
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Feb 19, 2022
...an inherently compelling premise that's employed to slightly uneven yet predominantly enthralling effect...
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jan 14, 2022
It is very good and sells the point that acceptance and friendship provide the most solace. And hey, if someone is beyond repentance, you can always put a bullet in his head.
| Original Score: 9/10 | Jan 5, 2022
