Martin McDonagh's comedy-crime thriller about two CIA agents on Easter Island, with Sam Rockwell and John Malkovich, at ODEON Stoke.
Wild Horse Nine is playing at ODEON Stoke on Wednesday 4 November, with three screenings throughout the day: 14:30, 17:30 and 20:30. It's a comedy-crime thriller directed by Martin McDonagh, who's known for his sharp dialogue and dark humour, and the cast is a heavy-hitting ensemble: Sam Rockwell, Parker Posey, Steve Buscemi and John Malkovich.
The story is set shortly before the 1973 Chilean coup. CIA agents Chris and Lee are dispatched from Santiago to Easter Island by their bureau chief, MJ, and it's there, among the island's iconic statues, that the longtime partners start wrestling with their dark pasts and the present conspiracies surrounding them. While that's unfolding, Chris forms a bond with a pair of rebellious students, and that relationship threatens to send the whole trip to that remote paradise sideways.
It's a 118-minute run, so just under two hours, and it carries a 15 certificate. With Rockwell, Posey, Buscemi and Malkovich all in the same picture, it's as much about the cast as it is about the plot. If you're a fan of McDonagh's work, this is one of his latest.
