Riff Raff vurderinger og anmeldelser
- jakeytastic28. mars 2025An absolute bore fest. Talented actors let down by a talentless script & director. Skip this is you value you're time.
- Kit Lazer11. februar 2025Such a strange movie (complementary). Pretty frequently laugh out loud funny, violent, surprising. Bill Murray and Jennifer Coolidge like you’ve never seen them.
- Derek Stevenson31. desember 2025Great cast, pretty good film.
- Tiago Nazareth30. mars 2025Was really expecting greatness from the all star cast that grabbed my attention, but ultimately it fell short and came across as a pretty average movie. I went into this movie blind having only seen the cast list and description. Being classified as a Dark Comedy with such a great ensemble cast I expected more. The pacing was incredibly slow from the start, and everything just felt drawn out. Characters don’t fit together well and the story is all over the place. There were some light chuckles here and there, but the movie is sparse with comedy. Based on the cast, this movie had the potential to be a lot funnier. The characters are interesting, but this would have made a better mini-series instead of a film. Fans of the cast members might find this movie worth a stream, but overall, I was less impressed with Riff Raff.
- Edward14. oktober 2025The cast was a bit wasted. The plot was sluggish, especially in the beginning with a fair bit of unnecessary time jumps. Took me two sittings to get through it though it did have amusing points, especially in the third act.
- seanp54213. september 2025Definitely an odd order of events Great watch
- stevencaceres2459. juli 2025OK, so start slow and character building and backstory… but then if you stick with it by the end, it totally goes Tarantino. It is fun. It’s a great character study. It’s dark and you should probably see it.
- DavChar19. juni 2025A great premise. A stellar cast. An absolutely shitty execution. I had to force myself to finish this.
- Yee Tsou4. juni 2025I thought it was good not great. But still had decent scenes, not many funny ones, mainly the ones with bill Murray in it. Standout performances from bill Murray and Jennifer coolidge
- mariekyle3. mai 2025Love the cast. A lot of funny moments and solid performances.
- dubalow726. april 2025Meh... it was... just ok. Not funny, kinda boring and the bi-racial relationship would have been more believable if it weren't for the huge age gap between the characters. I'll never get those two hours back... thanks Bill.
- jackmeat30. mars 2025My quick rating - 6.2/10. Director Dito Montiel delivers an engaging dark comedy in Riff Raff, a film that takes a familiar story and reinvents it with sharp writing, a well-paced narrative, and a stellar ensemble cast. Montiel, known for his ability to craft character-driven stories (A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints), keeps the film moving at a brisk pace. At just 103 minutes, Riff Raff manages to juggle backstory, character dynamics, and escalating tension without feeling bloated. The dialogue is sharp and witty, making even the film’s heavier moments feel engaging rather than weighed down by melodrama. The film wastes no time in setting up its premise. Vince (Ed Harris), a former criminal who turned his life around, enjoys a quiet life with his wife, Sandy (Gabrielle Union), and their good-natured son, DJ (Miles J. Harvey). But their peaceful New Year's Eve is thrown into chaos when Vince’s estranged son, Rocco (Lewis Pullman), arrives unannounced with his pregnant girlfriend, Marina (Emanuela Postacchini), and his brash, trouble-stirring mother, Ruth (Jennifer Coolidge). Rocco’s arrival isn’t just a social visit—he’s on the run, and hot on his trail is the aging but dangerous mobster Lefty (Bill Murray), who has a personal vendetta that threatens to turn this family reunion into a bloodbath. While the story itself isn't groundbreaking, the way it's told keeps things fresh. Montiel manages to weave past and present seamlessly, ensuring that every emotional beat lands while maintaining a tense and often darkly humorous atmosphere. The real highlight here is the cast. It’s hard to single out one standout performance because the chemistry between the actors is what makes Riff Raff shine. Each character feels lived-in, and their interactions elevate the material beyond a typical revenge thriller. The dialogue is particularly well-crafted—natural, witty, and at times biting—adding depth to these characters and their motivations. While the film might not break new ground in terms of story, its execution is what makes it stand out. The strong performances and Montiel’s skillful direction keep you engaged right up to the final moments. If you’re drawn to any of the actors involved, you’ll likely be hooked from the start. But if the names don’t entice you, the film’s impact might be a little less potent. If you enjoy dark comedies with crime elements and an all-star cast, Riff Raff is well worth a watch. The writing, performances, and pacing ensure that even a familiar story feels fresh. It balances tension, humor, and action effectively, making it an entertaining watch with a cast that truly brings it to life.
