Sergeant James Harper was involuntarily discharged from the Special Forces due to the traces of drugs that he has taken for his knee, which was injured during one of the missions. 

Looking for a way out from debts that keep on mounting, he seeks Mike, his friend who seems to flourish at his new work as he contracts with a private underground military force. Enticed by the story that Mike shared, James seeks and agrees to contract with a fellow veteran. 

The first mission is rather simple - extract an information from a scientist who is believed to currently experimenting with a dangerous biological weapon. 

Although his wife is against the idea of him contracting, James is persistent to provide for his family.

He flies overseas and meets with his fellow partners that will accompany him during the mission. What was first started as a simple extract and flee, turned bloody when the team killed the scientist and torched the laboratory.

As the team retracted, the police came and there were shoot out. A few of their members died, gunned down by the force. James and Mike managed to escape and hide in a sewer. James tended to Mike's fatal wound by transfusing his blood to Ben.

In the morning, the duo decided to split ways and agreed to meet at a safe house. James got to the safe house at a hotel with Mike nowhere in sight, he attended to his knees.

When he called home to the contractor, suddenly he was the aim of a shoot out and once again, he fled for his life. 

Why is the contractor aiming him?

MY REVIEW

Plot: 4.5/ 5.0 The twist was kinda obvious. I wanted to know the reason of the twist - why? 

It has MI vibes written all over it.

Cast: 4.5/ 5.0 With such list of actors, it is a film destined to wow the viewers. They delivered.

Will I Watch It Again: I don't mind watching it again. But not in the very near future.

The pictures are taken from multiple sources on the Internet. Thank you.
