“Somewhere, somehow, someone's going to pay.”
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s John Matrix, a disillusioned ex-commando, is thrust back into a world of violence and redemption when his daughter is kidnapped. Fighting through a gauntlet of adversaries, including his former comrades and a private army, Matrix navigates a perilous path with the aid of a spirited stewardess and an old friend. Time is a critical element in this relentless pursuit, as Matrix races against it to save his daughter before her captors enact their sinister plans.
