WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

After getting out of prison, former cop Spenser (Wahlberg) seeks to leave Boston for good, but not before solving the murder of his former colleagues, which he hires up-and-coming MMA fighter Hawk (Duke) and his foul-mouthed ex-girlfriend Cissy (Shlesinger) to help investigate and bring the culprits to justice…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

The fifth pairing between director Peter Berg and star Mark Wahlberg takes very loose inspiration from the character created by Robert B. Parker for a fast and fun action-comedy that’s bound to be a good time.
