The Fight for a Cure
Ray Cooper’s wife, Amanda, battles cancer, their hope resting on a promising drug pulled from the market. Ray confronts Simon Keeley, the BioPrime CEO responsible, vowing revenge if Amanda dies. This sets the stage for Ray’s descent into seeking justice by any means necessary after Amanda succumbs to her illness, leaving Ray and their daughter Rachel devastated.

Subway Ambush and a Quest for Answers
Six months after Amanda’s death, a journalist contacts Ray with evidence of BioPrime’s criminal activity. However, during their meeting in a subway station, both the journalist and Ray are attacked by a hitman named Santos. Ray is severely wounded, and Rachel, who was secretly following them, is knocked unconscious. This event marks a turning point, fueling a two-year obsession for Ray to uncover the truth behind the pharmaceutical company’s actions.

Personal Review
Okay, so I watched this for Jason Momoa, and he’s always great to watch in action. The whole plot with the pharmaceutical company felt a little too real, though, and hit a bit too close to home.

Overall, it’s a decent action movie if you can ignore some of the plot holes, but be prepared for some emotional stuff.
