Mark Wahlberg has become well-known for playing cops and criminals (and, on the truly odd occasion, a scientist), with every iteration also falling into the “action hero” category. But, in this particular example, while he does don a uniform as a crook-catching cop, his action hero credentials make way for something more grounded than usual, with Oscar-winner Joaquin Phoenix taking on the antihero role and dodging gunfire. So, while the crime thriller still falls into the expected Wahlberg-starring fare, it offers a refreshing twist on his typical action thriller. And the unsung crime saga has officially set a new free streaming release.
