Watch now! “Brutal” revenge thriller that’s “so much more than a Taken rip-off” is streaming for free

BBG News

Mads Mikkelsen’s revenge thriller, Riders of Justice, is now available to stream for free.

The Danish film narrates the story of Markus, played by Mikkelsen, who is both a soldier and a father. Tragically, his wife meets an untimely end in a railway mishap.

Upon seeing the tragic incident unfold, fellow traveler Nikolaj Lie Kaas later paid a visit to Markus to break the news that the assault had been orchestrated by a group known as the Riders of Justice.

In the company of stats whiz Lennart (Lars Brygmann) and tech-savvy outlaw Emmenthaler (Nicolas Bro), they undertake a perilous mission, aiming for retribution against the criminal organization.

The movie was released in Denmark in 2020, before making its way to UK cinemas the following year.

Currently, you can stream the film titled “Riders of Justice” for free on Channel 4’s online platform. It’s an action-comedy in the Danish language, but don’t worry, it comes with English subtitles!

Under the guidance of Anders Thomas Jensen, this film is currently receiving a remarkable 96% approval rating from 140 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. A review on RogerEbert.com characterized it as both harsh and humorous, yet surprisingly kind-hearted.

Simultaneously, in a positive assessment, Digital Spy noted that the film Riders of Justice shares some traits with Liam Neeson’s Taken series.

It was noted that both films employed a common plot device where a female character sacrifices herself to motivate the main male character, yet we emphasized that Riders of Justice is far from being just a replica of Taken.

As a gaming enthusiast, I can confidently say that if you enjoy high-octane action movies with Mikkelsen dishing out justice to the criminal underworld, then you’ll have no second thoughts about catching the movie in theaters. However, let me clarify that Riders of Justice is not just another run-of-the-mill action film like Taken; instead, it’s a clever and intelligent take on the genre, setting itself apart from most action movies out there.

Riders of Justice is available to stream on Channel 4.

The latest print issue from Digital Spy, “Oasis – Live in ’25”, is available! You can purchase it at your local newsstands or online for only £8.99.
