Storyline

Lea Anderson is a soldier in the British Special Forces, but has now come to doubt her choice of career. The secrecy, bloodshed and lack of a normal life are too much for the young woman who finally decides to call it quits - but not before going on one more mission in the Middle East to make sure her team and her stepbrother Paul get through it safely. When their unit runs into an ambush set by the terrorist they are supposed to kill, Lea and Paul get captured and forced to make a life-and-death decision: one of them will get to leave, one of them will die. In a moment of weakness, Paul bails and Lea is now left in the terrorist's hands, sure to face her maker. Years later, she returns to the UK. Not as a former hostage, but as a soldier, fighting the establishment that made her who she now is - a highly trained avenging angel.

User Reviews

The movie worth watching

To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of action, but I liked the movie. Dramatic line and interesting locations. I wonder where did they shoot it? The political theme made me think a lot about the situation in the world. I am glad that high-quality films are shot in Europe with actors from all over the world.I give the film 8, because 10 is only to the worldwide masterpieces. This production company has room to grow.We are used to the fact that such films are shot in Hollywood, Europeans have their own certain style, I consider. If you have free time and you are as curious as I am, I recommend watching this movie.
