Summary A romantic police captain breaks a beautiful member of a rebel group out of prison to help her rejoin her fellows, but things are not what they seem. The Story This is a way to write a story. More plot twists than an M. Night Shyamalan Boxset. Not for the weak of mind or lazy of plot following. This story mainly follows the story of two people with fantastic dynamics between them. You need to treat this film as a Christopher Nolan film. By that you need to pay attention to every excruciating little detail. I absolutely love this because it sets the film lovers apart from the film normals. One of the best stories I've seen in movies. Ever. The Visuals What can I say. My puny vocabulary cannot begin to describe the beauty and detail put into every shot. Every frame is as pretty and vibrant as the next. Pure eye candy. This film can show Michael Bay you don't need EXPLOSIONS and BIKINI GIRLS to make a shot interesting. Overall Review If this film is not on a 100 must watch films list, it is blasphemy. Watch this on visuals alone and to see some of the best fight scenes ever created. Go. Watch. It. Now.
