This movie started out very good. I really enjoyed the first half. It starts with two soldiers in Africa, one played by Mark Wahlberg, who are sharpshooters trying to help a convoy get out. When things start to get bad they are left, cut off, and have to get out on their own. Bob Lee Swagger (Wahlberg) is shown three years later living in the woods of Wyoming, alone with his dog and guns. He believes in conspiracies and wants nothing to do with the gov't. until he is approached by former Colonel, played by Danny Glover. There is a plot to assasinate the president and Swagger is the only one who can help. They want him to plan how he would do it, so they'll know how to stop it from happening. He decides to help, but everything goes bad from there. The president isn't assassinated, but an Archbishop from Africa, and the whole thing is pinned on Swagger. From here he's on a race to get away, find out what really happened, and prove he's innocent. Along the way he has help from his former friend's wife and an FBI agent. What really happened? Why was it pinned on Swagger? Will he be able to escape and prove his innocence? This movie is action packed and keeps your interest. I found it interesting, but it gets a little long. There is a lot of violence and killing which I thought there was just too much. Also, it starts to get political and I don't really like that from a movie. A good action packed, interesting movie.
