Chasing Raine

Thus movie rushes headlong into obscurity. The acting was trash. And the story made no sense. There were so many inconsistencies. I have never critiqued a movie before but I really had to say something. This was the absolute worse. I don't think the director and writers knew what to do with themselves. The best part of this movie was the poster. Fake fight scenes. Can't all be box office hits, but try to make a better movie. I can't believe I watched this trash. This movie was outside the realms of reality. Glad I didn't invest in this. I would've lost a bundle. Seems like Noone wanted to pay a technical advisor to make a better movie.

"Chasing Raine" is more than just a film; it's a poignant narrative that delves deep into the lengths a parent will go to save their child. While some viewers might find fault in the plot development, the true essence of the movie lies in its raw and unfiltered portrayal of parental love and the real-world challenges of custody battles.

For those seeking pure entertainment, "Chasing Raine" delivers. The film's emotional depth and relatable characters draw you into a story that mirrors the struggles of everyday people. It's a cinematic journey that encourages parents to cultivate an environment of safety and unity, emphasizing the importance of setting aside differences for the greater good of their children.

The film shines a spotlight on the antagonist, who is both relatable and reflective of societal norms. This character's actions and decisions underscore the broader message that ongoing custody disputes can create instability, a reality many face today.

Despite its imperfections, "Chasing Raine" stands out for its unique perspective and the boldness of its creators. It reminds us that bad decisions can lead to severe consequences, yet also illustrates the resilience and strength found within family bonds. This film is a must-watch for anyone who values heartfelt storytelling that resonates with everyday life.

Needless to say that I had of course never heard about the 2024 action thriller titled "Chasing Raine" prior to stumbling upon it by sheer blind luck and opting to sit down and watch it. Sure, I didn't know what I was in for here, aside from it being an action thriller, but with it being a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course the movie got a fair chance.

Writers and directors Lee Bateman and Quinanthony Bateman put together a rather monotonous and bland script and storyline. The narrative was progressing at an incredibly sluggish pace, which made it quite a struggle to sit through the movie without falling asleep.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, which is usually something I enjoy when I sit down to watch a movie. While the acting performances in "Chasing Raine" were fair enough, it just wasn't memorable or outstanding performances. But then again, the actors and actresses didn't really have much of anything in terms of script, dialogue or character gallery to work with.

For an action thriller, I was surprised at the lack of both action and thriller contents to the script. It neither felt nor looked like an action thriller. And if you enjoy action thrillers, do yourself a favor and give "Chasing Raine" a wide berth, it just simply isn't worth spending 101 minutes on watching.

My rating of "Chasing Raine" lands on a generous two out of ten stars.

This film gave a feeling of nostalgia. The story was well written and kept me attentative as I tried to figure what was going to happen next. I thought the pacing was pretty balanced between the storytelling and action sequences. I believe this may have been an Indie Film but I was unable to say because the production was so well put together. Also the action was superb and the acting was pretty good too. I was hooked after the opening scene which pulled me in towards the progression of the story. I was highly surprised with ending of the film. I will watch again . My favorite expect of the movie was the music it was retro yet modern.

This movie starts out as dysfunctional family issues with the ex-husband (Maurice P. Kerry, Clyde Foxx) and his ex wife (Krystal Jordan, Sky Atlas) over their daughter (Dall'asia Howard, Raine Foxx) things get tense when the ex dad kidnaps the daughter, things get very strange and you really don't know who is the bad element, the ex-wife or the ex-husband as other characters are tossed in from various very bad backgrounds creating a mish mash of plots. Very confusing to say the least, lots of gun play and violence, the fight scenes look forced and not authentic, then all of a sudden child trafficking is tossed in too. Very strange mix here. Nothing questionable, no nudity, lots of foul language, just a hard watch, you really do not know who to root for. If you can't find something else to see, this is an "OK" waste of time with an odd ending.
