Great stuff. I think for a lot of us Gene Hackman fans, we'll be scratching the flicks we missed off the list this year. Himself and Danny Glover are excellent here. The dialogue and performances are fucking superb, totally natural and real and that goes for everyone else too. Not once taken out of the film and totally invested. When the action sequences show up they're tremendous with excellent helicopter stunt work. Very satisfying viewing.

I've heard the phrase 'over…
