The beginning of March 2018 in American cinema, remembered for the premiere of the action Comedy "a Dangerous business" ("Gringo" — original title; again understand — why change the name to distribution) directed Nash Edgerton. For the filmmaker's second feature film, where he appeared in the Director's status. To he was paying attention to the stunt work (more than a hundred films) and directing short films. So what happened?
This is a story about three colleagues working on different levels in a large pharmaceutical company. Without the dark arts in business cost. To resolve the problems encountered with the cartels, they are in Mexico. Here and begin the adventure of different effects on each of them.
For the main roles was invited by the brother of the Director, Joel Edgerton (Richard), David Oyelowo (Harold) and Charlize Theron (Alleyne). The last field of interest in 2014 and made in it also producer. Minor and episodic role was played by Amanda Seyfried (Sanni), Harry Tredaway (miles), Paris Jackson (Nelly) and others. For Paris the part in the film — acting debut. And with her assigned the amount of work it is handled adequately.
"a Dangerous business" — dynamic film about fraud is not only the business but and human relations. No, not think it is a claim for some heavy Arthouse, which seeks only to philosophize. Here the idea is supplied in a sharp, funny, somewhat cynical way. It gives a sense of realism, sometimes in contact with black humor. All these motives and feelings find expression in the representation of characters and their dialogues on different levels. Individual attention to myself, Elaine and Richard. Here Elaine — a kind of Lorraine Broughton of the "the Atomic blonde" more aged model, more acute at the language. Tandem Theron-Edgerton — the one that I want to see again and again in other films.
Each character of this movie, in one or another, there is some hypocrisy. False to work, personal relationships. And even the desire to take revenge on those who is betrayed by his for profit, in the "Dangerous business" play this feeling. And that matter of fact, it was necessary to make simple-minded Harold Since, at which collapsed the usual state of things around? In fact, as sadly, "for good, and no one pays". The however, to change life, when she is confidently immersed in shit, I need this.
What is more interesting, so is that in "Dangerous business" each storyline (or each specific character) shows their attitude to the same same problem. Very curious to watch how diametrically opposed views intersect and create new plot twists.
"Dangerous business" — action Comedy, where not exactly will see a primitive mash of the guns, blood and bones. Instead, you will meet with an interesting story about how in an atmosphere of insincerity every saves your ass, how can only he. And as said the girl, coming behind me the hall of the cinema, "I do have morals!"

I recommend to viewing!
P. S. Please note "parable" about the gorillas, bananas and carrots, which the beginning of the film says Richard. In the course of the film, she POPs up in a funny way.
P. P. S. Shot film for 7 000 000 dollars — case of the "How to take quality for very cheap."
