Plot: Rei helps the woman she's been in love with for years escape her abusive husband is dead, killed by her lesbian friend who would do anything for her. Now they're running for their lives their feelings for each other catch fire.
My Movie Review: The movie is a instant vibe eclectic at first with neon city lights as it goes on it flounders to something peaceful and quiet' you can feel the calmness towards the last act! Ride or Die is amazing flick because it doesn't focus on sex but in the reality we have right now what life is like for a lot of women who experience domestic abuse with their husband at times!! The best part for me was the time that they fight for their love being part of the LGBT or even one them was finding hard to be out in the society we have show us the real pain few suffering! Despite Rei facing a long prison sentence and Nanae being distraught, the conclusion of Ride or Die ultimately represents a happy ending for the two protagonists while the idea of suicide and death has been a constant presence, both women end the movie alive as I may not expect this warmth and glimpse of hope I imagine a different direction more provocative high intensity!
Critic Reviews: Plenty of double-themed movies have been made over the years, but Ride or Die seems like an ideal companion piece to Persona. Both films are sexually provocative, and both require multiple viewings." Right at the moment when it seems like "Ride or Die" might run out of gas, someone drops by to remind us how powerful it can be when people let their most primal emotions take the wheel. Powered by heated conflict and occasional moments of grace! Hiroki's violent romance is about as messy and self-victimizing as the love that it brings to the screen. Complete with cinematography that's as smooth as its soundtrack, Ride or Die is far more than the Japanese Thelma and Louise that the trailers would have you believe. The road's promise of freedom gets narrower and narrower, but Ride or Die also delivers on it. Has a such liberating, inexhaustible energy. In the end, Ride or Die boasts strong performances, beautiful cinematography takes viewers from metropolitan restlessness to a liberating seaside!!
