    Nothing like a good old 90s action-thriller. You can see from the structure how it was based on a TV show, but they certainly manage to make a smooth 2-hour movie out of it.

    Low-key and reserved, it captures the essence of the different characters very well and is well-paced enough to keep you invested.

    In some ways, this film feels like familiar territory for Martin Scorsese, given it involves a criminal protagonist who is torn between his work and his family, and becomes increasingly unravelled as the film progresses. I certainly didn’t mind that in this case however, as it’s such a fascinating historical story with fully absorbing performances and excellent presentation of its lively setting and the corruption at its core. Don’t let the length put you off - I was engaged throughout.

    Clearly James Cameron has a talent for making sequels better than the first film. Watching this felt like Top Gun: Maverick in that they are simply trying to make a satisfying, entertaining product, and that’s what it is. There’s an engaging family dynamic between the main characters, as well as great world building: the film makes full use of its aquatic environment, with fantastic visuals and the more peaceful scenes in the second act being very comforting.
