As I sat down to watch the 2022 action thriller "Savage Salvation", I must admit that I was harboring some expectations from it, as it had the likes of Robert De Niro and John Malkovich on the cast list. However, I had never actually heard about the movie prior to watching it, so I didn't really know what to expect here.
Writers Adam Taylor Barker and Chris Sivertson did put together an enjoyable script and storyline for the movie. Sure, this wasn't exactly a movie that revolutionized the action thriller genre, but I will say that I enjoyed the story, because it was nicely written and proved entertaining. Sure, it was somewhat generic, even for an action thriller, but it still played out nicely enough to entertain me.
It was initially the cast ensemble that lured into watching "Savage Salvation", and they did indeed have a good cast ensemble. Leading actor Jack Huston carried the movie quite well, though I have to say that I am not really familiar with him prior to watching him in this movie, but he definitely performed well and was nicely cast for the role. The movie also had a good performance from Willa Fitzgerald, along with Robert De Niro and John Malkovich, of course.
I did enjoy the storyline, as I mentioned earlier, and the twist to the plot was actually quite nice. That was a nice touch from the writers, and I didn't see that coming. So thumbs up on that accomplishment.
While "Savage Salvation" proved enjoyable and entertaining, then it is hardly a movie that warrants more than a single viewing, simply because the storyline is a bit too generic and doesn't really have the contents to support more than just a single viewing. However, if you enjoy action thrillers, then "Savage Salvation" is well-worth checking out.
My rating of director Randall Emmett's 2022 movie "Savage Salvation" lands on a six out of ten stars.
