MILE 22 - Trailer & Featurettes, and my #UPMC2014 1/6th Kitbash
"In a visceral modern thriller from the director of Lone Survivor, Mark Wahlberg stars as James Silva, an operative of the CIA’s most highly-prized and least understood unit. Aided by a top-secret tactical command team, Silva must retrieve and transport an asset who holds life-threatening information to Mile 22 for extraction before the enemy closes in."
Besides Mark Wahlberg acting all macho-gunman (I love seeing him like that), and seeing my tv-crush Lauren Cohan in action, there's also the spectacular Iko Uwais - who utterly rocked "The Raid and "The Raid 2" (I've not watched his other films, alas), and the two attached video promos are making this an interesting watch, for reason(s) stated at the bottom of this post...
Directed by Peter Berg, Mile 22 premieres August 17th in the USA.
The visual theme reminded me of Arnold Schwarzenegger's "Sabotage" from 2014 - primarily because of the visual aesthetics of the armed (what used to be recognised as) "private military contractor"-type surrounded in urban civilian settings, as opposed to a battle-torn country.
It is "interesting" to me because I had initiated a group kitbash "challenge" to my fellow 1/6th collectors in Singapore back in 2013-14 ("#UPMC2014") to come up with members of the crew (pics on Facebook), for which I have since posted more images on my own hobby-Facebook AND hobby-blog ... which just happened to the last time I actively "played" with my 1/6th! Really gagging to get back into it, thanks to seeing "Mile 22"! LOL
