A small team of elite American intelligence officers, part of a top-secret tactical command unit, try to smuggle a mysterious police officer with sensitive information out of Indonesia.
So it's billed as an action thriller. It's not an action film like non-stop action nor is it much of thriller. Therefor it's more like a drama with action scenes and an overall what's going on Thriller feel to it.
So a die hard action fan won't feel this meets their expectations. I'm not really a fan of action films so it didn't bother me having some action peppered throughout around a thriller setting.
With the long runtime they could have done something to give insight into the main members of the team but they don't do that. Without that background you really don't care who lives of dies.
Bad guys just seem to be attacking them all the time as they blast their way through the neighbourhood.
It's a bit slow at times and no amount of sporadic shooting changes this feeling. Worth watching if you're a Mark Wahlberg fan which I casually am. I like him in everything he does.
It plays out like long levels of a video game. Shoot some bad guys, more pop up, shoot them, throw in a fist fight here and there.
So overall I'd call it a 5/10 movie.
