“Watching this movie, I was reminded of Harlem Nights constantly. But, whereas the other is meant to be funny, I fear that u0026#39;Rageu0026#39; is 5 stars short of being a good drama. I hate to spoil anything for the fortunate viewer that has yet to see the movie, but to avoid a sour stomach, pass on this one. I can only think of a few war movies that had more killings than this did. And with the u0026#39;canu0026#39;t-catch-my-breathu0026#39; action (at times senseless), the movie-goer may just hyper-ventilate themselves to sleep.”
