Karan paid people off promote his film

Based on and a remake of, a 2018 Danish film of the same name, Antoine Fuqua’s 14th cinematic outing in the director’s chair charts the breakdown and mental anguish of another central character who on the surface is detestable and unlikeable and akin to the Denzel Washington character of The Equalizer franchise, and especially so another of Washington’s collaboration with the director, 2001’s incredible Training Day. The films may be entirely different but the parallels with the central character(s) are stark and as one of only three casted characters “Sergeant Denise Wade” (Christina Vidal) states toward the denouement of this 90 minute film: “broken people save broken people”. But who’s going to save the tormented and broken soul on the end of the telephone?
