Citizen Vigilante<\/p>\n
Bollfilms<\/p>\n
One of the most notable stories in Hollywood right now is what\u2019s happening with Citizen Vigilante, the Armie Hammer action film directed by Uwe Boll that has become a rallying point for conservatives across the US. Those same conservatives have now made it one of the highest-rated movies on Rotten Tomatoes in 2026, and it is currently topping Amazon\u2019s paid VOD streaming list at #1.<\/p>\n
At a 94% Rotten Tomatoes audience score<\/a>, that puts Citizen Vigilante in the top tier alongside other huge hits. A comparison list:<\/p>\n On the critic side, there aren\u2019t even enough reviews in for a Rotten Tomatoes score, but with seven in so far, it would have a 14%. A Variety excerpt:<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cThe film is so astonishingly bad, it almost feels like writer-director-producer Uwe Boll is deliberately sabotaging his star Armie Hammer, whose intended comeback can only be harmed by this project.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n \u201cAstonishingly bad\u201d is something many would associate with director Uwe Boll\u2019s work well before Citizen Vigilante, especially a string of video game movies that often ended up with single-digit scores. But the idea this has harmed Armie Hammer, at least among a certain crowd, may not be true as he acts out a right-wing-inspired fantasy in the film and has received praised for doing so among that film\u2019s audience.<\/p>\n Citizen Vigilante<\/p>\n Bollfilms<\/p>\n Citizen Vigilante is reminiscent of The Boondock Saints, though instead of killing organized crime figures, he\u2019s killing migrants in Europe, showing assaults and rapes by black and muslim criminals who are then murdered by the a parody of right-wing fury, Hammer\u2019s Sanders. As are those \u201callowing\u201d this situation to unfold in government.<\/p>\n The film is being lambasted not only for its subject matter but how it works as an actual movie. As a political tool, however, the target audience is willing to forgive the fact that they\u2019re watching a bad Uwe Boll film to give it these high scores, and shell out enough money to shoot it to No. 1 on VOD charts.<\/p>\n Citizen Vigilante\u2019s profile was massively boosted by the world\u2019s first trillionaire, Elon Musk, who, siding with its messaging, streamed the entire movie on X for 48 hours as a way of promoting it to his 240 million followers. That led to the movie securing international distribution shortly thereafter.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a stomach-churning situation for many in Hollywood, though films like this remain the exception, not the rule. Still, the online audience is there for it, and more so than we\u2019ve seen with other attempts (Gina Carano\u2019s Hunter Biden film comes to mind).
