Elijah, a criminal mastermind, meets with a drug lord to obtain a special program that can access any digital system on Earth. The developer is the lord's son who gives them a sneak preview by directing the program towards an aeroplane that is flying above them. The plane loses control and crashes, killing everyone onboard.

Elijah kills the son and the lord. Just as he about to take the program, the authorities raid the mansion. One of the officers, Luis obtains the device. 

Later, Agent Mason is assigned to purchase the program with her partner, Nick. During the drop-off, Agent Marie, a German undercover agent, hijacks the deal. Mason chases Marie while Nick runs after the officer to an alley, where he meets Elijah. 

Failed to get the program, Mason returns to the HQ where she learns that Nick was  killed. Frustrated and angry, Mason heads to London after her superior, Larry allows here to retrieve the program using whatever means. There, she meets with her friend, Khadijah who is a retired MI6 operative. 

Luis arranges for Graciela, his psychologist to receive the program. When Mason and Khadijah tracks Luis, they witness Luis being killed by the entourage that was supposed to accompany him to safety. Before he dies, he gives Graciela a phone to track the program, and only she can uses the phone.

Marie and Mason both runs after the killer who manages to get the program. Now, the group of ladies decide to combine forces to retrieve the program, each with their own personal motivation. 

The four track the thief to Morocco and manage to apprehend him. But when they hears about planes crashing and cities hit by massive power outages, they realises that the program is now in terrorists' hands. They return to the safehouse, only to find Larry dead and now they are being framed for his death and the theft of the program.

Now, not only the four needs to find the program, they have to also find evidence that they are not the killer.

With everything going against them, will they be able  to solve the mysteries and reclaim their freedom and innocence?

MY REVIEW

Plot: 4.6/ 5.0 Call me bias but I am always eager when the movie is about women empowerment. This is so similar to Mission: Impossible movies with ladies as the lead roles and kicks asses!

Cast: 4.6/ 5.0 Yeah! Girls' Power! Amazing performances!

Will I Watch It Again: Yes!

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