A Vigilante 2019

Olivia Wilde stars in the revenge thriller A Vigilante. The story follows an abuse victim turned vigilante named Sadie who helps other abuse victims get free of their abusers (maybe). The storytelling really isn’t that good, as it kind of just jumps randomly into different scenes from Sadie’s missions without getting into the context (whether she’s doling out punishment, helping victims escape, or eliminating abusers). Still, Wilde gives an incredibly strong performance (both physically and emotionally). And there’s some mystery and intrigue to trying to figure out Sadie’s backstory and how she become a vigilante. A Vigilante is an interesting indie drama, but it falls a little short and doesn’t quite come together that well.
