An Unexpectedly Adored Actioner Dodges a Hail of Streaming Bullets

Streaming services are flooded with underwhelming action movies, often falling into the B-tier shoot ’em up category. However, this year’s Snag has managed to garner a surprisingly passionate fanbase.

Despite receiving a lackluster 4.1/10 rating on IMDb and a mediocre 20 percent critical approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, this low-budget action film seems to have struck a chord with its intended audience, earning an impressive 80 percent user score on the aggregation site.

Snag serves as a self-created platform for the talented British-born Australian actor, Ben Milliken. Not only does he co-write, direct, and produce the film, but he also takes on the lead role. The story revolves around Snag, who discovers that the love of his life is not actually deceased but being held captive by a group of ruthless gangsters.

Embarking on a journey through a seedy underworld filled with violence, unstable alliances, and old friendships, the narrative takes on an almost fairy tale-like quality. Snag, the determined protagonist, sets out to rescue his princess from the clutches of her captors in their castle.

Snag has definitely made its mark in the streaming realm, gaining recognition as one of the most-watched titles on Paramount Plus, according to FlixPatrol. While it may not be a groundbreaking accomplishment for a poorly-reviewed action film to perform well on-demand, it is still an interesting phenomenon in today’s predictable streaming landscape.
