Der Ex-Pornostar Mikey Saber (Simon Rex) hat guten Grund, aus Los Angeles abzuhauen. Er drehte viele Pornos dort, nun aber läuft das Geschäft für ihn nicht mehr. Mikey geht in seine kleine Heimatstadt in Texas zurück, wo seine entfremdete Frau Lexi (Bree Elrod) und seine Schwiegermutter Lil (Brenda Deiss) leben. Er zieht mit ein. Gerade als diese eigentlich dysfunktionale Familie einigermaßen zu funktionieren scheint, lernt Mikey eine junge Frau namens Strawberry (Suzanna Son) kennen, die an der Kasse eines örtlichen Donut-Ladens arbeitet. Mikey fällt sofort wieder in seine alten Gewohnheiten zurück. Er will Strawberrys Wunsch erfüllen, ein Pornostar zu werden...

    "Red Rocket" is a skillfully crafted film featuring an impressive screenplay. However, its narrative leans towards melancholy, centering around a protagonist whose influence in your life leads to distress. Its depiction of life in Texas for a struggling hustler is unflinchingly honest, devoid of any comforting sentiments.

    Red rocket is a true comedy of errors brought to life brilliantly by Simon Rex as he uses and abuses everyone around him to get just an inch ahead. Sean Baker has nailed down some intimate cinematography that oozes with rich colorful tones throughout and mirrors the optimism and empathy of its well written screenplay.

    Rex's performance is great as is most of the casts. It feels as if Baker was unsure of how to end the film and there is no real resolution for characters. Does Rex's character learn anything? Do his actions amount to consequences, revelation, insight? Not really. As such the ending is a bit flat and anticlimactic.
