French action thriller that doesn't really fit any of the trope styles, and yet somehow fits them all. It isn't traditional former black ops soldier a la Bourne Identity, it isn't revenge thriller a la Taken, it isn't white knight a la Equalizer. But mesh them together and you get a sense of the feel. Maybe a French Jack Reacher? Adam is an off the books hired gun for the French government that is called in to clean up (i.e. find and kill) a suspected terrorist. He has to rapidly infiltrate a local crime family to get at the terrorist cell. Everything goes exactly as planned, while not going to plan at all but he still succeeds. I would watch more of the Adam Franco character.
4 stars (out of 5)
