Not particularly stimulating but fun enough.

Rating: 6/10 (21 March 2019)

As good as the premise is, it's really just a gimmick to get you into this unoriginal military thriller.
I love the filthy, sordid world they create with everything going to sea. There is a sensation of how there is not one singular issue (as there never is) and I'm not saying the movie was completely without nuance but it's not going to make you think too hard.
The characters were bland and the movie isn't above being a little trite once in a while but it's well realised and there is a palpable sense of perpetual threat plus, the presence of Michael Cain alone gives it some credibility
There's even a laugh or two.
