Supremacy
A just paroled white supremacist and his ruthless girlfriend kill a cop and take an African American family hostage. Meanwhile, Sobecki, the heavily-tattooed supremacist leader who oversees his criminal empire from behind bars, is not thrilled when he learns of his charges screw-up. The patriarch of the family, an ornery ex-con himself, must rely on his wit and understanding of the racist mind to find a plan to free his family, but not before he confronts his own brand of bigotry and anger.

To make a movie about Aryans, you really need to have some sort of psychological insight into what makes them tick. Supremacy lacks any such insight, which makes it watchable, although never especially impactful.

'Supremacy' might function as a 'Clockwork Orange' type therapy for death-row white supremacists.

The characters shout themselves hoarse, but they don't really say anything, and it isn't long before we feel like hostages ourselves, bound by the filmmakers' strained moral outrage.

It's so grueling an ordeal that its revelations barely penetrate the murk.

[A] dour, dreary drama ...

A pretty preposterous plotline, but who am I to argue with a tale presumably based on a true story?

The film plays out almost like a conventional Hollywood hostage thriller but for the incendiary, racially charged subtext.

Supremacy is a well-acted, abysmally written, deeply unpleasant exercise that pays no dividends of insight for the chore of enduring its endless racial epithets.
