How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A rousing war-heist hybrid where a ragtag squad of condemned criminals train hard and strike with brutal efficiency. It's built on the tension between watching these rough men bond under pressure and the mounting dread of their dangerous final mission.
