The writing is not good, just that you can find your shadow in this movie

If you are kind, but desperate by reality, you can only squander time in the fantasy of drugs. If you have to struggle, you are all standing on top of dirty blood. Desperate to the end, then you can only self-destruct. —— Jack Valentine

If you just want to have money and satisfy your desires, then do it. The world is cruel enough. They have no relationship with me. What about slaughtering an entire village, I am doing a legal business. The biggest arms dealer is not me, but the president elected by you. - Yuri Orlov

I think the movie is a naked exploration of a kind of human nature, everyone sees it differently, I am just talking about what I see.

    Vitaly Orlov: What do you need me for all of a sudden?

    Yuri Orlov: Everything's fucked up more than usual. I can't trust anybody, I need you to watch my back

  • Yuri Orlov: [Narrating] I was so caught up in the deal, I never realized what was going on in Vitaly's head. Come to think about it, maybe I never really understood what was going on inside his head. One thing I do understand for certain is that Vitaly broke the cardinal rule of gun running: never pick up a gun and join the customers. Only half the guns and ammunition was gone so I was still entitled to half the diamonds ,if I took them I was lost, if I left them I was still lost. The massacre played out exactly how Vitaly predicted but then half a dozen massacres happened Sierra Leone that week you can't stop them all, in my experience you can't stop any of them
