Complete mess


Highly recommend if you plan to watch this movie dont. It has some of the worst editing I have ever seen making pretty much every single fight scene unable to be watched or followed and I can tell you this they definitely cut some of the wrong scenes together at moments too.

Plot was for shit and in all honesty you don’t care about any of the characters.

It seems completely bullshit that they didn’t realise the 18 year old killed at the start was connected to someone so powerful.

Not to mention as soon as their hardware went down that’s it they’re out, especially since the enemy constantly seemed to be able to find them they would have realised they had been hacked.

Not to mention you’re telling me they set up this location but apparently don’t have any guards protecting them? No one is watching the over watches back. Bullshit.

Not to mention that I’m calling complete bullshit as well that Alice was having such a hard time with her ex. She is a part of one of the most elite groups around and most secret group around and yet her ex can pull the shit he does. Nah sorry someone like her has enough contacts that he isn’t doing anything like ffs Marks character would have fucked the guy up by now. Not to mention why was Marks character let go? He was the one who actually killed the kid and yet he’s allowed to live. Again more bullshit. Seriously the moment the package got given a gun and had them in his sights and alone they were dead plain and simple.

A piss poor movie that really everyone involved making it from the director to writers to editors need to go back to movie making school and learn how to make a good movie. Because you don’t hire one of the most famous martial arts action stars and then edit every single one of his fight scenes with so many cuts you literally have no idea what he is doing or what is happening.

Do not watch this movie and if they do make a sequel don’t watch that either.

Yeah I thought this was a rare misstep for Wahlberg and the director Peter Berg.

Whilst I agree with everything you've said...the movie is still entertaining (I must add, for all the wrong reasons) primarily due to Wahlberg's numerous scowly/shouty character tantrums (it's like a big budget 'Dirk Diggler' spin-off movie)
