This
is an exciting movie with a lot of plot turns and twists, that will keep you
guessing and on your toes throughout.
Mark Wahlberg plays Chris Farraday, an old drug smuggler who is trying to get
out of the business and stay clear of the trouble it has brought him. But when
he is forced to make one last deal to try and protect his brother-in-law from
an all powerful drug lord, Chris is forced to use all his old tricks for one
last deal to make enough money to ensure everyone's safety. He now has a family
of his own, a wife and a daughter. When they are caught in the middle of the
drug war culture, he takes whatever action he needs to keep his family, and his
new life, safe.
In the process, it illustrates his ingenuity and strong determination on both
ends, in trying to subtly complete the drug deal, as well as to keep his wife
and child safe – or at least as safe as possible, under the circumstances.
It is a movie that illustrates human deception and treachery, and to good
effect. Nothing is black and white, and there are surprise deceptions, and not
always necessarily out of deceit or greed, either. You never know who is going
to betray who next. For a movie like this, it effectively keeps the twists and
turns going strong, and does it's job in this regard. It is also a very
exciting and entertaining movie, as any good action/adventure should be.
All in all, a fun movie, and a
decent way to pass a couple of hours with someone, especially if you like
action.
