CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com appears on “The Morning Mess” with Dan Baker on WBGR-FM (Monroe, Wisconsin) on January 15th, 2020, reviewing the new film “Outside the Wire,” streaming on Netflix beginning January 15th, 2021.
The year is 2036 and Eastern Europe is in chaos. A warlord is seeking control of old Russian nukes, with the codes locked in a vault in the Ukraine. When a drone pilot named Harp (Damon Idris) kills Marines during an air strike, he is reassigned to Captain Leo (Anthony Mackie), whose secret is he’s a robot android designed for warfare. Together they have to infiltrate the warlord’s headquarters “outside the wire,” with the help of an insider informant (Emily Beecham).
