In a rain-slicked city’s festering underbelly, Detective Bobby Walker (Tom Hardy) dives headfirst into chaos after a botched drug heist kidnaps a politician’s wayward son. Bruised and betrayed, he carves through crooked cops, cartel enforcers, and a web of holiday-season deceit—his fists and fury the only law left standing. Timothy Olyphant’s slick fixer and Forest Whitaker’s shadowy powerbroker add layers to the moral muck.

Gareth Evans (The Raid) unleashes his signature ballet of brutality: balletic shootouts erupt in snow-dusted alleys, bones snap in slow-mo savagery, and Hardy’s grizzled growl anchors the frenzy. The script stumbles with clichés and thin stakes, but the visceral highs—hyper-violent catharsis amid twinkling lights—deliver raw adrenaline. A faux-GTA grit coats it all, uneven yet electric.

A flawed feast for action fiends: Evans’ style still shreds, even if the soul lags. Stream on Netflix—buckle up for the brawl.
