    blue collar pro union storyline.
    all the bosses are greedy and evil.
    all the cops are idiots and useless.
    a movie that realizes chris pine’s ideal look is mining town former high school athlete and not clean cut corporate look.
    denzel’s streak of playing blue collar kings continued.

    hooters being involved in the storyline.
    denzel and pine bonding on the way to their potential deaths and making each other truly smile and laugh. 


    what’s not to love??? 10 stars.
