Honestly feels like a first draft. I love the Daily Wire and most of their work, and this movie had lots of potential. Though I quite enjoyed this film, it definitely needs work. When it comes to the production, cinematography, acting and all of that, it's extremely well done. But writing wise, it felt like a first or second draft. There's a severe lack of setup for even the most basic decisions and actions of the characters. Ex: Gina's character just somehow knows the strangers are villains, her husband suddenly knows his family's in danger just out of the blue, and there's no proper setup for our main antagonist (no hint at a motivation, no goal, nothing).

Oh no, they brought Gina back... and that is pretty hysterical. It stank losing her, but now she's acting again thanks to the Daily Wire... ... and guess what, like Run, Hide, Fight, this isn't political. It's just an action Western and that's it. Literally, that is it. It has a small plot, it has a small set, it has a small cast, but it works well with all of that... ... and delivers a nice action movie that is appropriately over the top without injecting the nonstop politics that comes from Hollywood. That alone is worth the price of admission.
