I enjoy Helen Mirren in pretty much any movie/theatrical role, and she does a very good job here as a UK armed forces colonel tasked with executing a drone strike on suspected terrorists while dealing with the legal and moral implications that such a task calls for. This is not an action film — in case you were expecting it to be — unless you are talking about verbal warfare. (It’s also, I believe, the great Alan Rickman’s last film before his untimely death.)
