Review of Essential Killing (2010) by Larry L — 04 May 2011

I don't know quite what to make of this film. I did get caught up in it at some point but i'm not really sure what story is trying to be told.

We encounter a man (gallo, who utters not a word in the whole movie) on the run in afghanistan until he is caught by u.s. forces and interrogated. in transit to a clandestine prison somewhere presumably in a former soviet republic or eastern europe, he manages to escape when the vehicle he's being transported in crashes. from then it's one long chase and survival story.
