As a passionate fan, I can’t help but share my excitement about the captivating, almost wordless thriller, “Motor City,” starring the talented Alan Ritchson in the role of Reacher. The first tantalizing teaser for this film has just been released, and as early reviews start to surface, it’s clear that we’re in for a real treat!
In the 1970s, set in Detroit, the almost wordless film narrates the story of John Miller (Ritchson), who emerges from prison, driven by vengeance. He was falsely accused and imprisoned by a local crime boss (Ben Foster) following his affection for the crime boss’s woman (Shailene Woodley).
On Instagram, Ritchson posted a sneak peek of the upcoming movie featuring him as the character who experiences a violent arrest, with Woodley’s character, Sophia, looking on in shock and dismay.

In reference to a scene in the video where his character’s face was hit hard on the sidewalk, Ritchson posted: “Indeed, my cheek is still tender. I appreciate your concern.
Ever since it made its debut on August 30 at the 82nd Venice International Film Festival, the initial critiques of “Motor City” have been published, and they’re describing the film as an exhilarating “rollercoaster ride”.
The movie was referred to as an “extraordinary showcase” that highlights the shared understanding between filmmakers and their audience, especially within the context of cinema genres.
The film, referred to as Motor City, is described by TheWrap as a noisy production filled with various physical exertion noises such as growls, grunts, and impact sounds like thuds, thwacks, oofs, crunches, shouts, explosions, and assorted unpleasant audible effects.
They went on to say that while it might not make sense logically, for avid pulp fiction enthusiasts, it seems to work quite well. However, for others, their enjoyment may depend on their tolerance for this unconventional rollercoaster ride.
As a die-hard fan, I’d put it this way: “Screen Daily” noted that the film seems to have more flair than meaty content. The question of whether it was worth the wait hinges on viewers’ patience for slow-motion shots of muscular men departing from blasts, neon and headlight reflections off wet asphalt, and an over-the-top design reminiscent of comic books.
The movie, titled “Next Best Picture“, offers an exhilarating rollercoaster ride that delights in its graphic depiction of retribution against those who commit heinous acts. While the storyline may be familiar, the film’s execution exudes a lavish style and the acting performances strive to create compelling characters.
The latest print edition from Digital Spy has arrived! You can purchase the “Oasis – Live in ’25” issue from newsstands or online for only £8.99.
