Watch Jolie fight raging fire and enraged hitmen

Action thriller about a teen being chased by assassins and receiving help from an operator (Angelina Jolie) of a fire lookout tower. Complicating matters is a raging forest fire inching closer and closer to their location. Jolie is fine with what little material she's given. It's a pretty simple story that clocks at ninety minutes. Aiden Gillen and Nicholas Hoult are built up as efficient killers but they often get surprised easily. Jon Bernthal fares better as a coworker of Angelina Jolie forced to make tough decisions. A surprise standout is a pregnant lady who can protect herself well in a fight. Tyler Perry makes a cameo out of nowhere as a shady villain. That's not revisited. It's a small tidy thriller that doesn't overstay its welcome. But it could had been a bit more interesting.
