semi-journalist turned unreliable film critic.

this is by far the most excruciatingly captivating slow burn film I’ve ever seen. For four hours, I was on the edge of my seat most of the time.
I loved it, but I think I understood why this was initially slated for a VOD release.
I need MORE!!
film 5/100
“It’s the right thing to do.”
Mark Wahlberg plays an ex-convict who stays true to his own moral code—catch the fucking bad guy.
It was actually better than what current reviews have to say about it. Overall an enjoyable corrupt-cop film but easily forgettable at the same time. Wahlberg plays his role well and is greatly complemented by Alan Arkin and Winston Duke.
If the ending was hinting at a possible sequel or even a mini-series, I wouldn’t mind checking that out.
I’ll admit, there were moments that tugged on my heartstrings and made me cry. I love the Star Wars Saga, but this just wasn’t the ending I wanted at all.
