JERICHO RIDGE REVIEWS HIGHLIGHTING CINEMATOGRAPHY.
But the cinematography is where Jericho Ridge truly shines. A siege thriller lives and dies by the quality of its action sequences, and Ruairí O’Brien provides an 88-minute blood transfusion to keep the Jericho Ridge heart beating. The film is largely set in one location (the Sheriff’s Office), and O’Brien throws a rat-tat-tat array of gripping shots and angles, almost mimicking the volley of lead pummelled into the walls of the precinct itself. The lighting and visceral kill shots are of the quality of a film with ten times the budget of Jericho Ridge. Set in an unnamed American state and shot in Kosovo, the audience feels just as captive as the characters on screen, and that is a testament to Gilbey and his team.
