I only watched this movie after I heard that it was effectively "banned" by Germany. I am really glad I spent the time and money to see such a great film. It's an extremely effective and brutal reminder that we need to be aware of what our leaders and governments are importing to our shores. Dangerous people are being favoured over both our indigenous and European populations. We're tired of being ignored and it's time we start taking action....

Citizen Vigilante is easily one of Uwe Boll's strongest and most thought-provoking films. Powered by a solid performance from Armie Hammer, it follows an American expat who embarks on a violent crusade against criminals. Rather than offering easy answers, the film makes you question what happens when public faith in legal institutions completely collapses. The stylish visuals, dark humor, and willingness to tackle difficult themes keep it engaging, even if the graphic violence and political commentary won't be for everyone. Recommended for fans of 1970s vigilante cinema....

I started watching this without realizing it's an Uwe Boll film until opening credits began to roll. For better or worse, I've watched a bunch of Uwe Boll movies over the years and they were all extremely bad, but - this is a new low.

Garbage hate-ad made by a thin skinned evil manbaby Uwe Boll, I wouldn't be surprised if the whole movie was financed by extreme right wing organization/s or it's a psyop sponsored by some oppressive dicatorship, but I also wouldn't be surprised if he financed it himself.
Plot is basically this - rich american landlord (ex military) with daddy issues that co...

The fact that this movie was banned in various western countries means it touches a nerve with the people in power. When you get a lot of flack, it usually means you're over the target. And boy, is this movie over the target. It reminds me of the Charles Bronson Death Wish movies, but adds to it one of the most divisive yet important problem of the past decade(s) in western countries: uncontrolled migration and the rise of crime it brings with it. This movie in a sense feels good because it gives control back to the native Europeans who have been betrayed by their own politicians, murdered, ra...

Whilst by no means a great film, "Citizen Vigilante's" message could arguably be said to be overdue. In spite of Western globalist governments'authoritarian refusal to accept there is a problem with their open-door immigration policies and two-tier justice systems, there's also a growing refusal amongst native populations in Europe and elsewhere to accept the claim that their societies are naturally "diverse" and "monoculturalism" a lie.

This film, which I glanced at, to be honest, is something of an action potboiler with plot holes aplenty. That said, it does still raise wholly valid poin...
