Aleks and Milenko dive into the high-octane world of Jeremy Saulnier’s Rebel Ridge (2024), a brutal throwback to 80s/90s action films with a modern twist. The brothers break down this gritty, adrenaline-fueled thriller that’s not just about fists and bullets—it's packed with sharp, biting dialogue and intense verbal sparring. The action feels grounded in reality, with brutal, physics-based fight choreography that brings real stakes to every scene.They also dig into the film’s deeper themes, like structural racism, seen through the journey of the Black protagonist, Terry Richmond (played by Aaron Pierre). Terry’s battle against a corrupt system, embodied by Don Johnson’s ruthless, bad-cop antagonist, adds layers of tension and social commentary. It’s a movie that’s as thoughtful as it is relentless, and the brothers have a lot to say about how it updates the action genre while tackling important issues.Get ready for fiery takes, wild insights, and plenty of love for Rebel Ridge. This is a can't-miss episode for action fans and film lovers alike.
