This shit is fighting above its weight class. Sure, Brad is in it. But other than that it’s a mid market genre flick with actors who you kind of recognize.

Jon bernthal is the best character actor in the game rn and you can’t tell me otherwise.
Welled up but did not shed a tear during the Richard to Venus speech at the net where he talks about his experience at the hands of a white racist mob and how his childhood reinforced his protective qualities.
