Finally, a movie that is all about the mission. There is no sappy stuff, no helpless maiden who changes everything or kid who gets kidnapped, forcing someone to go through hell to save the day. This is pure mission stuff, where people just keep doing what they are good at, again and again. I enjoyed that very much!
That being said, there is very little else in this movie. It is a story about an adrenaline junkie who is only suited for one thing. That is why I am rating it a seven, as there is not really any plot to the story.
I have not always been a fan of Jeremy Renner, but he does a great job in this movie. The same goes for Anthony Mackie.
There is a lot of shooting and obviously quite a few bombs as well. It is all done pretty well.
If you enjoy bomb disposal suspense, the American army in the Middle East and numerous missions throughout the movie, this might be a hit for you. I give it seven out of ten.
