It's amoral, repugnant and gripping
The rise and fall of an arms dealer during the end tail of the 20th century, with a large side dish of unflattering history from the ex-Soviet block and West Africa.
Cage's emotionless delivery does wonders for his barely human character.
One could argue the movie portrays small arms as the root of all evil in Africa, thus ignoring a more complex reality, but well, it's still good.
