IMDbTwo sort-of-but-not-quite lesbian lovers are seeking to escape their issues, which include, but are not limited to, murder, in the Japanese manga turned Netflix film Ride or Die. The comic novel Gunjo by Ching Nakamura is adapted by director Ryuichi Hiroki with all the explicit sex, bloody violence, and winding 142-minute story it ostensibly requires. Although it's a little difficult to sell, is it eventually worthwhile to buy? Even while it may sound absurd to want a 142-minute movie to be longer, Ride or Die feels like it uses an excessive amount of shorthand to get to its target running time. Short meetings with Rei's family and other people along the way hint at a bigger narrative that is scarcely touched upon in this film. However, given its style of intricacy and complexity, the even deeper plunge into this universe appears more enticing than the minimalist version. An even leaner cut might have removed any possible distractions. Ride or Die uses some odd language and has some dubious motivations. The universe that Rei and Nanae have created for themselves is only supported by that, though. Because of its ugliness and flaws, it is unsettling.
