Detective Knight: Redemption (2022)

Edward Drake obviously grabbed a star from the sky, that’s why he made two whole films about the adventures of Detective Knight. The sequel continues the story of a seasoned cop. This time Knight got behind bars, but that’s half the trouble! The city of New York is terrorized by a gang of malicious Santa Claus, they rob banks with impunity, and kill people, the mayor is inactive, and the police are powerless. What remains? To connect the coolly brewed Jack Knight to the case!

Well, I admit- the sequel about Knight is head and shoulders above its predecessor. The director’s insight came to Edward again, and he still made a one-time action movie with a plot that did not sag! This is not the merit of Bruce Willis, the nut released in circulation again plays on the principle – ‘I’m silent, and I’m frowning.’ Bruce seems to be there, but he doesn’t seem to be there, in some frames, the presence of an understudy is very striking. But, the essence of Eddie Drake’s films is a completely merciless action for the poor, which in * Knight: Redemption * is in abundance.

The main improvisations fell on the shoulders of the antagonist, that’s who really plays the bad guy so it’s the obsessed leader of the Klaus gang. The image turned out to be gorgeous, and quite in the spirit of the militants of the nineties, which is what Drake emphasized. In addition to the talented villain ‘Knight: Redemption’, there is also a regular actor of Eddie Drake’s films, Locklin Munro, who was allocated more screen time this time, because Willis is no longer a cake. The action movie turned out to be suitable for dynamics, and absolutely devoid of semantic load, this is another story where, instead of Willis, you could conditionally cram … yes, anyone. But, apparently, Edward Drake is so obsessed with the actor going into the sunset that he tries to use the tired star in every possible way wherever he has to. Alas and ah. I wonder what the third Knight movie will be about.
