The Recruit: Season 2 - Netflix Series


The Recruit: Season 2 | Official Trailer | Netflix
Netflix

This is an action thriller. Our boy is a lawyer working for the CIA and he's gets dispatched to deal with a legal problem in far away places, but when he pulls on the legal problem, reality intrudes.

This time the Yakuza (Japanese gangsters) have kidnapped a woman working for some charity outfit delivering food somewhere on the east coast of Russia. Initially, it is not clear what has happened to her, she has just vanished. Eventually we hear that her deliveries were somehow interfering with their smuggling operation. Basically, the kidnapping was just an excuse for our boy to unleash mayhem on the Russkies, which he does in fine style.

Curiously, the CIA is portrayed as being full of evil and corrupt people who aren't above killing co-workers if it means they get a shot at a promotion or a better office. They are some real scum bags.
