Nero, a former special forces agent, has moved to a quiet beach town to raise his son leaving his past life behind, but he gets rudely awakened by a phone call from a modulated voice telling him that his son has been kidnapped. In order to see his son alive again, Nero must wipe out three dangerous crime syndicates of highly-skilled criminals and kill each and every one of them. But he has to work alone and face increasing obstacles and levels of weaponry to uncover the identity of the man behind the macabre plot. The clock is ticking and Nero can't waste any time or make any mistakes or he will risk losing his son forever.

This is bad from the get-go and generally the low production values do not hurt an action movie but it clearly shows here. The cliched reason to do things are never explained and then it finale gets unnecessarily complicated trying to be smart. Scott Adkins does well here but he is just not given enough fight scenes for which he was hired. The action scenes are choreographed nicely but they aren't enough here plus there is little to no pay off in the end.

I enjoyed this enough, but it ain't anything special unfortunately. The fight scenes with Scott Adkins are really well done though and I loved Mario Van Peebles in this as the villian who is not only alot of fun in his scenes, but I also thought it was pretty interesting how his character operated in a very gray area which honestly made him kind of likable IMO.
