Review of Redbelt (2008) by Zack S — 02 Apr 2012
When I heard the David Mamet wrote a martial arts movie I thought that he had finally gone Hollywood. WHile it is not a Glen Gary Glen ross or even a Spanish Prisoner, it is not a Karate Kid sequel either.
It is more about the honor of martial arts than it is about winning it all in the final competition. I recommend this film to people who are in martial arts because I feel that they will get it more that others.
But as a Mamet film it is more of a miss than a hit. I like his research, I like his dialogue, but I didn't quite feel this movie.
