What the critics say

Critics agree RDX delivers exactly the no-holds-barred action it promises, with praised fight choreography and strong lead performances, but call the revenge plot generic and thin, with weak romance and sidelined female characters.

How this number was made. We read every review and derive a 0–100 reading from each — including where the critic printed a number, which stays first on its row, because it’s theirs. The Filmi Score is the mean of 6 readings; 2 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. Rubric v2.1, computed 26 Oct 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.
