The Take
Citizen Vigilante is not worth watching. It is a crude anti-migrant manifesto dressed up as vigilante action, directed by the king of cinematic disasters.
Uwe Boll frames graphic killings of criminals portrayed as migrants as heroic release while Armie Hammer's comeback attempt collapses under the weight of the script's one-note rage.
The Verdict
This exists solely to signal anti-migrant grievance and failed-actor nostalgia. The identity play is pure cope for viewers who want their prejudices confirmed without any filmmaking skill.
Skip it. Watch John Wick instead for stylish vigilante action without the hate manifesto.
