I started watching this movie, thinking it was a superhero movie, which I'm not a fan of. As it turns out, it marginally falls into that category. While it's about a group of five immortals, they really don't have any superpowers, other than the fact that they can't be killed, and they're great fighters. There are two storylines in the film. One is about the introduction of a newly found immortal, a young black female Marine. The other is about an evil head of a pharmaceutical company, who wants to capture and experiment on them to discover the secret to their longevity. The head of the gang is played by Charlize Theron, who literally and figuratively kicks ass. I really enjoyed the smart writing, great cinematography, and of course, phenomenal fight scenes.
4 out of 5 stars
