Leave your thoughts about The Ranger.
| Eye for FilmJennie KermodeBlending a playful Eighties vibe with a distinctly modern sensibility, it takes on themes much darker than mere murder yet never loses its spirit. |
| PatheosEve TushnetThis is mostly very fun, silly but satisfying. |
| Los Angeles TimesKimber MyersUltimately The Ranger promises more than it delivers. |
| The Blogging BansheeMolly HeneryThe Ranger is equal parts carnage, survival, and punk rock. It has all the appeal of an eighties slasher flick, but it also tells a more complex story. |
| The Hollywood NewsKat HughesGreen Room set in Jason Voorhees' stomping ground, The Ranger will have you on the edge of your seat. Gore-soaked fun with an emotional core and kick-ass score. |
| SciFiNowAnton BitelIf the synthetic drug that these kids snort and sell is called 'Echo', then The Ranger too resonates with hallucinatory flashbacks to cinema past. |
| Woman in RevoltLindsay PughWhen a groups of punks take refuge from the law in a cabin in the woods, all hell breaks loose. "The Ranger" is a great debut feature from Jenn Wexler. |
| ScreenAnarchyJ Hurtado[A] fun throwback with a killer soundtrack and enough solid kills in its 77 minutes [...] to sate spiky haired gorehounds everywhere. |
| Daily DeadPatrick BromleyIt's pretty rough around the edges, part by design and part because this is Wexler's first movie, but it's a lot of fun and the kind of horror movie you want to put on at parties. |
| The PlaylistElazar FineThe Ranger is a few degrees off of being great; its villain is way too confused and ill-plotted for the film to be anything other than periodically fun. |
