Army of Two Movie Quote
Because people experience the game in pairs, playing two guys who go against the world, Scott and I agreed this would make a great buddy film. The ambiguity of these private military corporations lends weight to an intelligent thriller with relevance to what's going on in the world right now. You have contractors with their own agendas, and two guys whose friendship supersedes all the politics. - Scott Z. Burns
