This film draws its inspiration from movies like The Contender and Jack Reacher. It brings in the political and plan oriented operations from The Contender while also bringing in the action from Jack Reacher thus creating a unique mix between political and normal thriller. This movie also takes a unique stance on the ending of thrillers by breaking from tradition and not explaining everything and leaving the audience to figure out why and how everything happened. This is quite different from Jack Reacher and The Contender where in both of them, at the end, the main character basically does a monologue recapping everything that happened and explaining how they knew what happened where as in this movie the audience still needs to figure some plot points out. This break from tradition will help enhance the mystery of this film leading people to go and watch it again and again.
This movie also tries to relate to the teenage audience much more than many other movies by centralizing around the truly teenage game of water wars. It also uses an all teanage cast to give the film a very authentic feel unlike most other movies that try to cast 20 somethings as teenagers, The Amazing Spiderman with Andrew Garfield. Overall this movie will be a must see blockbuster of the summer.
