On June 19, audiences saw the release of “Citizen Vigilante,” an action thriller starring actor Armie Hammer as Michael Sanders, a former United States Army officer who moved to Europe after inheriting his father’s business.
Sanders takes matters into his own hands, seeing corrupt officials and a gross miscarriage of justice unfold as migrant populations are ignored despite their heinous crimes.
The film has clearly spoken to audiences given that, as of Monday, Amazon Prime lists it as No. 1 on its list for “Top 10 movies to rent or buy.”
The relevancy of “Citizen Vigilante” is obvious to anyone following the disaster that is mass migration into Europe. Yahoo notes the inspiration of the film was an infamous case in 2016 from Hamburg, Germany, where a group of teenagers raped a 14-year-old girl but ended up going free.
German director Uwe Boll noted that his native country effectively banned the film. “The rating system refused to give us a rating, so now you can only watch it if you bring in a Blu-ray from Austria or Switzerland,” he said.
Revenge movies always do well in the U.S., not without easily figuring why.
One good guy taking out that many bad guys!
Imagine that taking place here in the states…
I would volunteer for that jury!
Not Guilty !!!
Not Guilty !!! It’s called Jury Nullification.
