Da 5 Bloods
DA 5 BLOODS are African American "blood brothers" who fought side by side in Vietnam. One of them, team leader "Stormin' Norman" (Chadwick Boseman), was left behind. The remaining four: Paul (Delroy Lindo), Otis (Clarke Peters), Melvin (Isiah Whitlock, Jr.), and Eddie (Norm Lewis) return to Vietnam nearly 50 years later, ostensibly to bring Norman's body home. Secretly, it's more than Norm's body they're searching for. The "bloods" also hope to recover a treasure of illegally confiscated gold bars that they buried during the war. After a joyful reunion in Ho Chi Mihn City, the group plans to sell the gold if they find it. To that end, they partner reluctantly with the sketchy Desroche (Jean Reno), a corrupt Frenchman. The four friends are then joined by Paul's son, David (Jonathan Majors), now "the 5th blood." Their journey into the familiar but dangerous jungle in which they soldiered so many years earlier begins.
