Mile 22 (2018)

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Mile 22 (2018)

Post by Leisher »

Mark Wahlberg is a brilliant psychopath and spy for the U.S. He leads a team of other spies including Rhonda Rousey and Lauren Cohan. John Malcovich is their "boss" and "Mother". A cop in an Asian third world country seeks asylum with the locations of WMDs as a bargaining chip. Mark and his team are tasked with getting him out of the country. Little do they know the odds are very much stacked against them.

Let's get the obvious out of the way, there are flaws in the story. The biggest flaw being, without spoilers, that just doesn't happen without them knowing immediately. Even if they didn't, it wouldn't be hard to figure out. The film is also predictable.

That being said, the action is pretty good. Also, Wahlberg is an entertaining psychopath. Lauren Cohan is also really captivating.

I don't think it did awesome, but a sequel would be interesting.
