Mark Wahlberg has played action (anti)heroes in many films, but his dirtiest role so far is sure to be seen at Mile 22. Peter Berg’s wild genre inferno runs on Thursday at 10:30 p.m. on VOX. In addition to Wahlberg’s striking main character, the film impresses above all with its polarizing staging.
In Mile 22, Mark Wahlberg plays a gruff anti-hero
In the story of Berg’s film, the star plays CIA agent James Silva, who and his team must protect and escort Indonesian police officer Li Noor (Iko Uwais). This has important information about the whereabouts of radioactive cesium.
Wahlberg’s Silva is portrayed as a distantly autistic character who, since childhood, suffers from excess intelligence and energythat he can never control.
The action in Mile 22 adapts to the main character
In terms of staging, Mile 22 adapts to the chaos in Silva’s head with a violent thunderstorm of cuts. This lashes the movie forward as a continuous forward motion.
In addition, the main character of the action cracker anything but sympathetic is. On the contrary, Silva is sometimes so harsh on people from his own team that the lines between good and evil in the fight against terrorism become increasingly blurred.
If you want to experience an unusual to radical action experiment, you should get involved with Peter Berg’s Mile 22.
