As I sat down to watch the 2023 action thriller "One Ranger", I had actually never heard about the movie. But seeing that the movie had Thomas Jane and John Malkovich on the cast list, I figured that the movie from writer and director Jesse V. Johnson might not be all that shabby. And the storyline turned out to be one of those good old fashioned police versus criminal type of stories. It was actually an enjoyable storyline, generic in its own rights perhaps, but entertaining nonetheless. So writer Jesse V. Johnson did put together a good script here, as I was genuinely entertained from start to end. The pacing of the narrative throughout the 95 minutes that the movie ran for was good. There was a good combination of action and character development, which kept the movie interesting. Needless to say that the acting performances in the movie were good. The movie was nicely cast by leading actor Thomas Jane and Dominique Tipper. Nick Moran was also nicely cast and added something enjoyable to the movie. I have to say that the way that John Malkovich was delivering his dialogue in the movie was just weird, it took away from the feel of the movie and it was sort of difficult to take him serious in his role in the movie. The action sequences in "One Ranger" were good and definitely added to the enjoyment of the movie. If you enjoy action thrillers then I will say that director Jesse V. Johnson's 2023 movie "One Ranger" is well worth watching. My rating of "One Ranger" lands on a six out of ten stars.
