5.0

Describing the plot, this could easily have been action-centered, bland Saturday-night-Syfy-movie fare. Instead, it was a fucking bop.

I loved that the main character was an old gay man, because it secured that the plot wouldn't be sex-driven. I loved that it was international, because you get to experience Mumbai and France and Germany and all are described with care. I loved that his crew was built up by long association, so there was no dick measuring contest; everyone just did their jobs. And I loved that all of the characters felt fleshed out and real.
