Reviews
  • Blu-ray.com: Dourdan is a fine tough guy.
  • Bulletproofaction.com: How many times can I call Gary Dourdan a badass in my review? Who knows, but he’s definitely a badass.
  • Dansmoviereport.blogspot.com/: a blast of energy and angst, worthy of a re-watch, and to own, rating a strong 8 out of 10.
  • Worldfilmgeek.com: Redemption Day is not only Gary Dourdan’s ticket to be a future action hero, but one who is truly human with a politically charged script by Hicham Hajji. A good way to start 2021!
