Just being up front, I'll give this movie a C. Sean a dope actor. And he did his thing. Javier Bardmen (killer from NO COUNTRY) is a straight :troll: man. I liked him as well. Camera work with going to Africa and Spain was dope and beautiful. Violence wise. This ain't no kids, PG violence. Some stuff is graphic. Not gruesome or anything but definitely not some kiddie stuff.

Basic plot (spoilers). Sean worked for this secret organization that assasinated leaders in Africa. It takes place in the Congo and there's a Civil war going on in the land. Sean is assigned to kill somebody and then he has to bounce. He leaves the country and leaves the game. 8 years later, some niguhs come after him to kill him. And he doesn't know why. So he goes back to his old crew to find out who and what is after him.

Negative: It's easy to figure out who's after him. Unless you just cut your brain off during the film it's predictable. The last killing scene of the villian is easy to figure out as well. You'll see it coming from miles away. Another thing is the romance in this. Boring. Chick is nothing special and has the chest of a pre-teen girl. Never bought into that these 2 loved each one minute.

Idris Elba-
Niguh is in this movie for like 10 minutes. He has an important role but it's basically like a guest appearance. I thought he was gonna have a big role

Bottom line: The violence is straight. But the plot is too predictable. Action wise, it's pretty much a cat and dog game. He's smarter then all the villians and figures out different ways to kill them. Similar to like Bourne. He's no Bourne but I'm just saying he can kill with guns or with his hands. So that part is good. But the predicatabilty and the romance, is eh. It's a decent flick but I can see why it has the RT ratings it does. For me, I'll just wait till this comes on HBO, Saturday, 8:00pm next year.

These dudes did it for a paycheque. Bardem was trash, Sean Penn juiced up and looked like an idiot, Idris was an extra for 2 mins.

I couldn't stop laughing at the disparity between sean penn face and body...

Body looking like a juiced out pro wrestler in his physical peak

Face looking like a dried out Idaho potato on a porch in the middle of July...

Legit spent more time arguing with my wife and her sister if dude head was cgi'd on his body than paying attention to the movie...

It's a shame to see Bardem take roles like this...dude is a top tier actor and his spanish movies be :wow:...then he in this shyt coked up drunk and flopping around like a damn fish...
