After seeing the buzz on The
Raid 2 from Sundance, I knew I had to check this one out, and holy
hell I was not disappointed.
I love action movies. I mean
really LOVE action movies. And I was asked what the last great one I
saw was as I was watching this. That was not easy to answer, and my
answer was Shoot 'Em Up because they choreographed a gunfight to Ace
of Spades. Picking this was a stretch. I had to stop and think.
This is an amazing movie. No big stars that need to live. No bullshit soundtrack. No bull whatsoever. The score was driving, and just as unforgiving as this movie. A suicide mission? A man trying to move up the ladder sacrificing a rookie squad? Yes, no and all of the above. Brilliant story, believable characters... what more can I add? Oh yeah... balls out action. It's got that.
There are plot twists and
turns that probably make every executive quake in his boots. This is
the real deal kids. This is what we want, what we need. No cartoon where no
one dies. OK maybe one or two do, but this is the real deal.
My rating is Good. Rent it.
Cable it. Steal it. If you love action...this is it.
