On the big screen: Hardcore Henry
Starring: Haley Bennett, Sharlto Copley and Tim Roth.
Directed by: Ilya Naishuller.
Hardcore Henry is an action film told from a first person perspective.
You remember nothing. Mainly because you’ve just been brought back from the dead by your wife.
She tells you that your name is Henry.
Five minutes later, you are being shot at, your wife has been kidnapped, and you should probably go get her back.
Who’s got her?
His name’s Akan; he’s a powerful warlord with an army of mercenaries, and a plan for world domination.
You’re also in an unfamiliar city of Moscow, and everyone wants you dead.
Everyone except for a mysterious British fellow called Jimmy.
He may be on your side, but you aren’t sure.
If you can survive the insanity, and solve the mystery, you might just discover your purpose and the truth behind your identity.
Good luck, Henry.
You’re likely going to need it.
