A disgraced rookie drone pilot and a prototype android officer are sent to enemy territory to stop a nuclear attack.
Very bad from the very beginning! Having served in the special forces, let me put it this way: There is NO WAY you can get away with what Harp did! You are done! Finished! In and outside the army! From thousands of miles away, eating gummy bears, chilled, while marines on the battlefield drop like flies, and then you kill your own! NO. WAY.
I would say that the film goes downhill from then on, but this would require it to start from a certain height. It starts from the bottom and stays there. It miserably fails to evoke any emotion at any level in all three acts. No suspense, no drama, no humour, no relatable action, no relatable characters, and then, no science, no reason, confused moral compass, and confused geographic compass. All the confusion and the no’s are nothing but the result of a bad production that is the result of a terrible script. It is like John Wick (2014) meets Terminator 2 (1991) meets Lord of War (2005) that finally meets none of the above and fosters a two-hour, old-fashioned, American, propagandistic, nonsensical, pedantic mashup of nothingness.
I value Netflix, director Mikael Håfström, and Anthony Mackie, and I hardly speak like that about the films I review. This one, though, undermines human intelligence and has immoral and dishonest intentions, so I’ll pretend I never watched it and move on. I suggest you do the same, and if you haven’t watched it, don’t!
