Directed by: Michael Cuesta
Written by: Stephen Schiff, Michael Finch, Edward Zwick, Michael Herskovitz, & Vince Flynn (novel)
Starring: Dylan O'Brien & Michael Keaton
I wasn't going to see this movie because it's definitely a guy movie.
After Mitch's (O'Brien) fiancé dies, he becomes determined to get revenge. He begins investigating who killed her and then gets recruited to join a counter terrorism group, led by Stan Hurley (Keaton), a former Navy Seal.
It was a gruesome film. After it ended, the guy next to me said, "Mike Tyson got nothin' on Michael Keaton." Keaton was that intense.
It was a great action flick with good guys, bad guys, shooting, explosions, torture, etc., but I didn't see the reason as to why Mitch decided to stay in this group because the group was investigating counter terrorism, which apparently had no link to his girlfriend's murder. Or did I miss something? So what was the motivation? That's the only thing I had a problem with. There wasn't enough character development to explain his motivation.
