I enjoyed this and will pick it up. It doesn't seem like it received too much attention but I thought it was very good and would recommend at least a regular priced rental for those interested who didn't see it when it was in theaters or on HBO Max in May.

I would not pay $19.99 for a rental, but once the disc comes out in August, the rental cost should be more normal.

It has rotated off HBO Max now because the second month is supposed to be exclusive to theaters, but the gross was so low that most theaters have dropped it already. So it seems like it is just going to be mostly unavailable until the digital release in July. Anyway, I thought it was good and hope it eventually reaches more people.

Amazon has created a listing for the Blu-ray but oddly enough aren't taking pre-orders for it yet.

I'm a big Jolie fan, but I thought the movie was just alright. It will undoubtedly be in 4K/DV on iTunes so I might pick it up there whenever it discounts down to my price point.
