A
small team of elite American intelligence officers, part of a top-secret
tactical command unit, try to smuggle a mysterious police officer with
sensitive information out of Indonesia.
In
a visceral modern thriller from the director of Lone Survivor, Mark Wahlberg
stars as James Silva, an operative of the CIA's most highly-prized and
least-understood unit. Aided by a top-secret tactical command team, Silva must
retrieve and transport an asset who holds life-threatening information to Mile
22 for extraction before the enemy closes in.
—MrFurious
An
elite paramilitary team called Overwatch is tasked with transporting a police
officer (Iko Uwais) with vital information about a potential terrorist attack
22 miles across Southeast Asia from the American embassy to an airfield. With
the help of high-tech communications expert Bishop (John Malkovich) and
second-in-command Alice (Lauren Cohan), leader Jimmy Silva (Mark Wahlberg) and
his team must outrun local military, police and gang leaders to complete their
mission.
CIA
agent and former U.S. Marine war veteran, James Silva, leads a Special
Activities Division team code-named Overwatch to raid a Russian FSB safe house
in the United States. Under the remote supervision of James Bishop and his
team, the mission is to locate and destroy shipments of Caesium before the
highly radioactive substance can be weapons. In the ensuing firefight, most of
the Russians and Overwatch operative Greg Vickers are killed, but critical
intelligence on the Caesium is destroyed. Silva executes the last survivor, a
teenager who warns him that he is making a mistake. Sixteen months later, in
the Southeast Asian country of Indocarr, police officer Li Noor surrenders
himself at the US Embassy to negotiate for passage out of the country in
exchange for information. Noor is revealed to the asset of Overwatch agent
Alice Kerr and reveals he possesses a disc containing information on the
Caesium, and is able to negotiate passage out of the country in exchange for
unlocking the disc, which is programmed to self destruct within four hours.
Ambassador Dorothy Brady is visited by the country's Deputy Foreign Minister and
state intelligence agent Axel, with the two demanding that Noor be handed over
as he is wanted for espionage. Meanwhile, Noor fends off an assassination
attempt by disguised government agents in the embassy infirmary using his
skills as a former member of the elite tactical squad..
At
the US embassy in a South East Asian country, a man turns up offering secrets
with enormous benefits to the US. Now a crack team of CIA agents must get him
out of the city so that he can be extracted by air. The journey will be
incredibly dangerous.

Synopsis
The
film starts with agents Alice Kerr (Lauren Cohan) and William Douglas (Carlo
Alban) arriving at a blue house on Christmas Street. They are part of a Black
Ops group known as Overwatch, along with their partners Sam Snow (Ronda Rousey)
and James Silva (Mark Wahlberg), all monitored by Bishop, AKA
"Mother" (John Malkovich). Alice and Douglas infiltrate the place,
which is a safe house for Russian FSB agents, and the Overwatch team is trying
to recover cesium they may be holding and prepping to use as weapons for
terrorism. The two shoot and kill most of the agents in the house, but there is
one hidden behind the walls, and he shoots Alice, wounding her. A young FSB
agent, Anatole (David Garlik), attempts to save the cesium and he falls out the
window, but Silva corners him and shoots him. The Overwatch agents then destroy
the house. News of the operation hits fast, especially that regarding Anatole's
involvement.
The
opening credits give a brief history on Silva, who was said to be gifted at a
young age and was later recruited into Black Ops forces not long after the
death of his mother and brothers in a car accident. Throughout the film, we see
bits of Silva giving a testimony on an operation.
Indocarr
City, 16 months later
Overwatch
is operating in Indonesia. Still hunting for the cesium houses, Alice says she
has a source with information on them, while Silva acts hotheaded toward his
teammates' actions considering how urgent the matter is. Silva then takes on
the task of speaking to a walk-in who needs help because the government wants
to seize her assets, while Alice has to talk to her ex-husband Lucas (Peter
Berg), whom she hates because he isn't letting her see their daughter.
A
local police officer named Li Noor (Iko Uwais) arrives at the U.S. embassy to
surrender himself, along with a disc that he claims contains the information
Overwatch needs to find the other cesium houses. However, Li requests that he
be escorted out of the country and given asylum in the United States in order
to give them to the code to unlock the disc, or all the information on it will
get wiped within a matter of hours.
Elsewhere,
a group of Russian agents led by Vera Kuragin (Natasha Goubskaya) are
monitoring Li's whereabouts, as they are seemingly planning to have him killed
within the next 24 hours.
Li
is brought into the medical room for tests. A man named Axel (Sam Medina)
arrives with Indonesian intelligence agents to demand that Li be handed over to
them, but Ambassador Dorothy Brady (Poorna Jagannathan) doesn't let them take
him. Li is then attacked by two agents disguised as doctors after handcuffing
him to the bed. Li fights them while handcuffed and kills them both. Sam and
Alice witness this and are surprised at Li's fighting skills, and they learn he
was once Indonesian Special Forces.
Silva
and his team, along with other separate operatives, proceed to escort Li to an
airstrip that is 22 miles away, with Bishop keeping an eye on them. Li says he
is going against the Indonesian government because they are responsible for the
deaths of his family. En route, the team is followed by Axel's men on
motorcycles, who plant grenades on Silva's van and blow it up. Some of the
operatives are killed, and Sam is terribly wounded. Silva and his team open
fire on Axel's guys, who return fire and continue to try and bomb them. Alice
stays next to Li to protect him, although he helps get a few kills in as well.
After doing away with most of them, Silva gives Sam two grenades, leaving her
to blow herself and the rest of Axel's men up.
Bishop
guides Silva, Alice, Douglas, and Li to a restaurant where they have an inside
guy working with them, so it is like a temporary reservation for them. Silva
looks outside and sees Axel. He goes to approach him even though Bishop tells
him to stay in the restaurant. Axel demands that Li be handed over, but Silva
tells him to stop following them. When he goes back into the restaurant, two
girls that he brushes past leave a grenade in another attack, but he manages to
save a small girl standing near the grenade. Douglas is wounded, and the girls
come back to attack and get Li, but Silva and Douglas kill both of them, just
before more of Axel's guys come after them, prompting them to run.
Bishop
orders Silva to take Li to the airstrip immediately. Instead, they go to a safe
house where Alice takes Li while Silva and Douglas fend off Axel and more of
his goons. After a firefight, Silva goes back inside to find Alice and Li while
Douglas keeps shooting back. He gets severely wounded until Axel walks up to
him and finishes him with a bullet to the head. Bishop guides Silva to find
Alice and Li. Alice has a brush with another henchman and almost dies until Li
shoots the goon in the head.
Silva,
Alice, and Li finally make it to the airstrip, but Axel has found them yet
again. Silva then has Bishop send a drone to blow Axel up for good. They then
proceed to the plane where Alice goes with Li, who gives up the code to the
disc. Before they depart, Li tells Silva "Say hi to Mother for me."
Before Silva can get an answer, the plane takes off. Bishop then sees that Li's
heart rate is accelerating. Then, the disc starts to upload what turns out to
be a picture of Anatole. Meanwhile, Vera and her men prepare to watch something
about to take place. It then becomes clear that Li was a triple agent working
for the Russian government, and that Anatole was Vera's son. Her men find
Overwatch and shoot the whole team, but Bishop barely manages to get out. Li
tells Alice "Gotcha", letting her realize too late what has happened.
In
the final scene, Silva completes his debriefing and later places a picture of
Li on his wall as he plans to get revenge against him.

Reviews
I
understand the criticisms about this movie. But the criticisms fail to consider
the movie as a whole and only consider minor things. It is very difficult with
respect to me to like a movie, yet I liked this one! I will mention the pros
and cons and let the reader decides. I will start with the cons to explain why
this movie doesn't get a high rating despite it deserves a lot more.
Cons
(as mentioned by criticisms):
1)
Camera shaking. It is not perfect but not too bad. It doesn't prevent you from
enjoying the movie.
2)
Fast dialog. This is an action movie - not a drama. More dialog will make it
boring.
3)
Story. This a personal opinion. I personally like the story.
Now,
why I would give such a movie 8 stars although I am very difficult to be
satisfied by any movie.
Pros:
1)
In most cases, in action movies, the good guy (hero) starts weak and suddenly
becomes unbeatable at the end. Or sometimes the hero is already unbeatable from
the beginning to the end. In this movie, we have a fair war. The good guys
(heroes) lose and lose and lose from the beginning to the end. The bad guys are
tough and really tough, and many times in the movie you wonder "how are
they going to make it!?".
2)
This movie is very fast. Everything is fast. You will never get bored. No
unnecessary lengthy dialog. It is full from the beginning to the end unlike
other movies where the director just pass minutes by unnecessary lengthy dialog
and scenes.
3)
The twist. Although you may predict the end, but it is really satisfying
connecting all the parts of the movie into a single picture.
I
write this review because I think this movie got a lot less than what it
deserves.
This
is an action movie that is fast, straight without any derailing. Good and bad
guys are almost equal - Fair war- this creates a lot of thrill. Actions scenes
are good and thrilling. The story is also good with a very satisfying end.
Don't
listen to criticisms. I strongly recommend this movie. You will not be
disappointed.
