[HRH1948]

Not to interrupt our resident Siskels and Eberts, but practically every mainstream movie with a rape scene is a disappointment. By a similar token, practically every porn video with a faux rape scene is a disappointment.

Revenge (2018) is a typical rape-revenge film with more than average gore. It will never win an award, but it is entertaining and a provides a few minutes of escapism.

The choice is to let your mind complete or modify the scene and make mental directorial changes while you enjoy the mental set-up, acting, special effects, lighting and story, or watch a faux rape video and be mentally bludgeoned by XXX debris with bad acting and no production values.

I will now securely put away my soapbox and get back to posting mainstream movies with "disappointing" rape scenes.
