Tyrin H @RT39496730 Jul 21 A raw, unforgettable portrayal of a hard man unravelled by humanity. Savage is a raw and powerful film that explores how trauma, abandonment, and the search for belonging can shape a man into something unrecognisable. Jake Ryan gives a phenomenal performance as Damage, a gang enforcer whose hard exterior slowly unravels as he confronts the pain of his past. The film doesn’t glorify violence — it shows the human cost of it. Through gritty visuals, flashbacks, and subtle character shifts, Savage tells a deeply emotional story of a man built by brutality who begins to question the world he’s created. It’s one of the most honest and affecting New Zealand films I’ve seen See more Troy V @RT27212958 Jun 30 Must see! Gritty, dark, and compelling performances. Watch it See more gareth d @HiGarethDavies 12/28/2022 It's not good, it's not terrible - somewhere in between it meanders along with Danny the Damage and his hammer. See more 07/07/2021 New Zealand gang film. Less full-on than I expected, and doesn't have the same psychological impact as Once Were Warriors. The script is light on character development, and could have delved deeper into the cultural context of the gangs. See more 06/12/2021 This movie could be hard to watch if you are not familiar with our gang culture or New Zealand. At bit like Once were warriors (Very NZ focused). I feel this is a real deep look into the gang culture and some of the obstacles some of our people experience. An eye opener. I highly recommend watching this movie, but come in with a open mind. See more 05/22/2021 I can see this movie being hard to watch if you aren't from New Zealand or familiar with our gang culture. I personally found Savage to be a deep, hard look into some of the darkest corners of NZs past and the effects they had on young men at the time. New Zealand wasn't always Hobbits and compassionate Prime Ministers. I highly recommend this movie if you want a look at some of the hard truths of our society. See more Read all reviews
