Amazing writer Alison over at Pineal Eye delves deep into a very rich and thought provoking review of Red White & Blue.

“Despite the movie’s unchained emotions and visceral punch, Rumley’s unflinching precision allows us to sink into his storytelling, and quietly interlope amongst his characters – even as darkness slowly envelops and extinguishes the last breath of hope that lit their way.”
