Interceptor


It's rare to see an action film with a female lead. But this is Netflix who can afford to be a little different when they build a movie around a military missile base in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The cast of soldiers and terrorist is small and once you set up a few blast doors behind a computer command center you have a tense stand-off between good and bad with the fate of America at stake. The trailer tells you everything you want to know.


I enjoyed this one for what it was. Elsa Pataky is pretty badass and does some great stunts to make this one work.

She's Chris Hemsworth's wife so that may give her some pull with Netflix too.

So THAT is why he has an uncredited role as a hippy tv salesman who cheers her on. It's a half days shooting for him and I wondered why he put in the effort. Now I get it.
