_**Good locations, decent yarn, nice spirituality, but subpar filmmaking**_ In the desert wilderness of the Southwest wilderness in 1902, a grieving young woman (Kaylee DeFer) marries a miner (Ryan Doom) who’s curiously never home while his humble younger brother (Ric Maddox) takes care of the homestead, which includes her younger brother and sister. How can a family function with the husband perpetually roaming elsewhere? “Renegade” (2011), originally called “Massie,” is an Independent Western drama with fine Arizona locations, a worthy story, welcome biblical spirituality, a few worthy actors and a decent score, but it’s unfortunately hampered by amateurish filmmaking, including dubious acting by several peripherals, which is obvious right out of the gate. I’m perfectly able to overlook a film’s lack of resources and even skill if the story is commendable and the actors give it their best. The micro-budget "Border Shootout" (1990) is a good example. But the filmmaking in this one is so subpar my mind kept wandering. Thankfully, I was able to acclimate enough to appreciate the Southwest locations, the music, the semi-overt biblical elements and, by the last act, the story (which, admittedly, is predictable, yet heartwarming). This is fine as a student project for the director & Co. to learn from and could be appreciated by their families & friends for input and growth. But, as a viewing experience for the general public, it isn’t worthy. As pointed out, it’s not all bad, the director & team just needed more finances, improved skills or both for an effective product. The film runs 1 hour, 29 minutes and was shot at Gammon’s Gulch Movie Set, Arizona, which is about 25 miles east of Tucson. GRADE: D+
