Movies like Samaritan

“Samaritan (2022) is a 2020s American action-crime thriller that stages a child's suspicion against escalating urban disorder. Its core conflict pits a thirteen-year-old's belief in a reclusive neighbor's vigilante identity against a city on the brink, rendered through anamorphic framing, rack-focus choreography, and a desaturated grade. The film demonstrates that the ethics of protection become visible when camera mechanics prioritize observation over exposition.”
