    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.

    "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.
