While the beginning
of the film feels like it's setting the audience up for a somewhat boring lesson on drone warfare (I'm looking at you, Good Kill), Hood — still wiping the
sting of X-Men Origins: Wolverine off with Ender's Game and now this — excellently threads the
needle of tension and, before you know it, the thriller aspect
of the film becomes abundantly clear as the series
of events play out in semi-real time over the course
of one day.
Featuring the Broforce theme song by Strident, ultra-patriotic tracks The Ballad
of Rambro and The Star Spangled Banner, massive percussion ensemble level music, power metal
stings and epic hybrid scoring boss battles, this is the sound
of a vinyl
needle dragging over a disk made
of pure testosterone.
