Film Review – Detective Knight: Redemption

DETECTIVE KNIGHT REDEMPTION 1

“Detective Knight: Rogue” was released seven weeks ago. It’s okay if you don’t remember it, few people actually saw it, but it marked the beginning of a trilogy from writers Corey Large and Edward John Drake (who also directs), who don’t have an overall arc to follow over three features, but they have titles, with “Detective Knight: Redemption” hoping to continue the story of the eponymous cop and his hazily defined reason for rage. It seems the three movies were all shot at the same time, trying to take advantage of star Bruce Willis’s limited working capabilities due to his medical condition, and he’s back, kind of, for “Redemption,” with his role basically amounting to an extended cameo. “Rogue” was a rough sit, with Drake struggling to tell a coherent story and manage dismal action sequences, and the same vibe is present in the sequel, which offers a slightly smaller pool of crooks and cops, but shows no creative spark, turning to pure cliché to get by.
