Introduction:

In the deadly game of espionage, top-tier anonymous agents are engaged in a secret war for power, intelligence gathering, and national security. Recently, rumors have spread among these mysterious agents about a new assassination weapon. This weapon is nearly invisible to the naked eye and can be injected into the target's body. At the right moment, with just the press of a button, the target will die instantly without leaving a trace.

Only two arch-rivals possess the sufficient ability, skill, and perseverance to uncover this ultra-micro weapon. One is known by the code name Sever, trained to be a perfect killing machine, fast, ruthless, and precise, never stopping until her goal is achieved. The other is the exceptionally intelligent former FBI agent Jeremiah Ecks.

Ecks was once the sharpest agent in the Federal Bureau of Investigation, but after his beloved wife died in an explosion, he was filled with guilt and self-blame, leading him to resign. Now, his former superior has forced him back into action, facing the greatest challenge of his life—he must confront his lifelong nemesis, Sever.

This intense game of life and death can only have one winner. But when the rules change, these two long-time rivals discover that the person they’ve been trying so hard to defeat may be their only trustworthy ally.

If you enjoy works in the style of John Woo, then you'll also love this tightly plotted, non-stop action movie filled with explosive scenes. The film wastes no time on unnecessary details, accompanied by a rhythmically strong soundtrack that leaves no room to breathe.

Lucy Liu’s effortless drawing of her steel baton from under her leg while walking, the sudden crescendo in the music when a group of intelligence agency personnel trip over a mine wire, and the final exclamation "Shit!" before their deaths are some of the most brilliant moments in the film.
