Viewing Notes

Wow. Michael Parks.

If anything, RED STATE puts Parks on the map and we see him in a lot more films to come (his resume is already off the charts). I was blown away at his portrayal of Abin Cooper.

RED STATE also surprised me in many ways. I had no idea where the film was headed and I was genuinely shocked during many moments of the film. A brave solid film with a few flaws, RED STATE should be applauded just because it exists.
