Reviews

Critics have had a mixed response to 'Rage,' with many acknowledging its intentions while pointing out its limitations. On IMDb, the film has a rating of 4.7/10, reflecting a divided audience reception. Some reviewers appreciate the film's intense action scenes and Samuel Le Bihan's performance, stating, "Bihan delivers an intense portrayal of a father pushed to the brink," highlighting the emotional layer he brings to the role. However, many critiques focus on the film's narrative weaknesses, with Rotten Tomatoes users pointing out that, while the action is gripping, ‘the plot often veers into clichés that undermine the tension.’ Metacritic users have echoed similar sentiments, suggesting that while the cinematography captures the brutal environment effectively, the execution lacks depth with one reviewer noting, "It felt like a missed opportunity to explore deeper character development." Ultimately, Rage is seen as a film that entertains with its energy but falters under the weight of its narrative shortcomings, leaving audiences desiring a more cohesive film experience.
