Restless Immortals
Immortals have their problems too.
Like tiring of good things they do.
And losing loves while they go on.
For centuries they’re never gone.
Four of this group seem quite a team,
but get involved in someone’s scheme.
That someone wants their DNA.
He’ll profit by it come what may.
“The Old Guard” meets a member new
and try bringing her into crew.
Their boss Andy, though very tired
helps her believe and be inspired.
Charlize Theron is boss Andy.
At ways of warfare, she’s handy.
Saving good people is her game.
A sequel would not be a shame

I agree a bit with Richard about all the violence and characters that are super in one or two traits that make them ridiculously powerful through wishful thinking.
I've noticed that movie posters often show the main character in the front with other characters behind, all carrying guns in some kind of macho posture as though they are so good with a professional that they can overcome even something like gas or a bomb dropped on them. While in fights, they have remarkable shooting ability. It is so fake that it makes me sick, longing for more realism in the movies rather than war-games where the player gets his/her jollies out of annihilating as many bad guys as possible. Why I always check out those movies, I don't know…
