Raze, starring Quentin Tarantino muse Zoe Bell, gets a wider release this month.
The rest, as they say, was history.
Is anyone noticing a pattern here?
But those do not serve the Bell-as-Tarantino-muse theme I am trying to get at.
Razeopens with a young woman on a comfortable blind date.
After deciding not to invite her date in, she draws a bath for herself.
During this bath, the woman is tased and abducted.
She awakens in a dungeon.
Once inside the room, the door quickly closes, locking the two girls in the room.
After killing the woman, Sabrina shouts, How many more do I have to kill?!
And so,Razebegins.
Just who is that one victor?
You will have to seeRazeto find out, a fate that I find fairly mediocre.
Mostly, we watch endless fight scenes between scantily clad women in this stonewalled pit.
That being said, watching Bell fight was particularly captivating and noteworthy.
Similarly, the cast ofRaze, outside of Bell, is strong but highly underused.
Instead of dialogue, we get fight scenes.
Instead of character development, we get fight scenes.
And instead of a fleshed out plot, we get fight scenes.
Just how good are these fight scenes?
They are, in a word, repetitive.
Yes, there are some stand out scenes, the final one in particular comes to mind.
But alas, he did not.
