| Mads Mikkelsen is, as usual, fighting mad in Riders of Justice |
One of the more pleasant surprises of 2021, Anders Thomas Jensen's
Riders of Justice is a thriller with
unexpected reservoirs of heart and humor. Mads Mikkelsen brings his stone faced talents to bear as a career soldier whose wife dies in a suspicious train wreck. A motley band of outsiders aid him in his mission of revenge and become a surrogate family to the wounded warrior. If anything,
Riders of Justice functions as a critique of more simple minded revenge flicks.
Riders of Justice contains rich characterizations and a tonal variety that recalls the best of Jonathan Demme and Aki Kaurismaki. A find!
