A thriller with a 90s vibe
Those Who Want Me Dead begins somewhat like a puzzle, consisting of three independent stories that then connect into one. In the first, Hannah (Angelina Jolie) is a parachutist firefighter from Montana who is a bit grumpy, haunted by a giant fire that incinerated three children and a co-worker before her eyes.
The second takes place in Florida. Two men, played by Nicholas Hoult and Aidan Gillen, ring a prosecutor’s house as part of an intervention into a gas leak case. When they come out the house falls apart. A man (Jake Webber) and his son Connor (Finn Little) make a hasty departure due to a drama being broadcast on a news channel.
He is the dead prosecutor’s accountant and he immediately realizes that it is a set-up and he is next on the list. All these little people meet when the accountant seeks out his brother-in-law, a sheriff played by Jon Bernthal, who is also Hannah’s ex-husband, who has just had the pleasure of activating his parachute while standing in the back of a speeding pickup. . And being scolded by the former sheriff who was not happy to see him playing Russian roulette with his life.

you follow ? Because it gets complicated. Two murderers murder the accountant, who in his last breath sends his son in search of a trustworthy person so that he can expose to the general public the sordid affair that cost him his life. And this is just the beginning of the film.
What follows are several particularly brutal scenes of arbitrary executions, a few scenes of torture, and a little boy who is incredibly strong and dignified, even though he witnessed his father’s murder. And Angelina Jolie is somewhat like a superhero without superpowers, but she can endure more than any other human being when faced with the most extreme adversity.
This thrilling thriller is reminiscent of the 1990s in many ways, with scenarios that push its heroes to their limits. Except that there, the indestructible hero who knows how to handle an ice axe, walk straight into a devastating fire without panicking and who treats her wounds with alcohol without panicking is Angelina Jolie.
