The Old Guard --- Forever is harder than it looks

I’ve been tracking the release of Old Guard for months. Really been looking forward to it. Charlize Theron and Chiwetel Ejiofor? Sign me up!

From the trailers and blurb (I’ve not read the graphic novel) it sounds like a modern Highlander-esque story. Also tremendous video game potential, though I’d be hesitant to recommend a tie-in game now that it’s been made a movie.

It’s out on Netflix today.
