Very engaging, accurate and unpredictable.
It is a brutal war movie that depicts war in Iraq, where local SWAT team faced vs ISIS.

It’s a violent and unrelenting film with some grim depictions of urban warfare.

Charlize Theron with her best performance, here! Watch here.
The movie is a smart blend of action and emotion and it doesn’t fail to touch all the aspects of everything that Immortality would bring the curses more than the blessings.
