FunTranscript
00:00The movie begins with a brutal man sitting at a table, lining up three shot glasses in front of him.
00:05One stays empty, the second holds a single bullet, and the third has two.
00:09He starts naming the fallen soldiers he fought alongside, counting down until he reaches the last name.
00:15The final tally lands on the glass with two bullets.
00:18Without hesitation, he downs the whiskey from that glass, then loads the bullets into his revolver.
00:23This time, it's a one-in-three chance in Russian roulette.
00:26He pulls the trigger, just a click, no bullet.
00:29Whether that's luck or punishment, he's not sure.
00:31Later that day, Chapman heads to a liquor store to restock.
00:34Just as he's browsing the shelves, two armed robbers storm in.
00:38Without a flicker of fear, he steps right into their path.
00:41Calmly, he tells them not to aim for the stomach.
00:43It's a slow, messy way to go.
00:46He grips the barrel of one gun and dares them to aim for the chest or the head instead.
00:50You're crazy.
00:51No, no, no, no, I'm crazy. I'm patient. Come on, come on.
00:54The gunman hesitates.
00:55That moment is all Chapman needs.
00:57In a flash, he takes down one robber, then the other.
01:01But as they hit the ground, his mind isn't in the store anymore.
01:04The memories of war come rushing back, drowning him in their weight.
01:08That night, sleep is impossible.
01:11The flashbacks hit like a freight train.
01:13He tries to drown them out with brutal training, but it's not enough.
01:16His frustration boils over, and he pounds his fists into the wall until his knuckles are raw.
01:22Morning comes, but Chapman isn't in any shape to face the day.
01:26Hungover and barely functioning, he's jolted awake by someone hammering his door.
01:31It's his sister Cindy, the sister he completely forgot to pick up from the airport.
01:36She's not shocked to find him in this state.
01:38Cindy tells him she's only in town for a couple of days for a friend's wedding before heading back to Brazil.
01:43She's been working there in dangerous neighborhoods trying to make a difference through charity work.
01:48Chapman hates the idea, but arguing with her is useless.
01:51Before leaving, Cindy checks his medication, the ones that are supposed to help him cope.
01:56Turns out, he's swapped them for breath mints.
01:59Shaking her head, she leaves.
02:00And for a while, everything seems normal.
02:02But after some time, two Brazilian cops, Catarina and Paulo, find Cindy barely clinging to life on a beach.
02:09The brutal attack makes headlines, reaching the U.S. Embassy and, eventually, Chapman himself.
02:15He doesn't waste a second.
02:16He's on the first flight to Rio de Janeiro.
02:18Meanwhile, Detective Tiago Santo and his partner, Carlo Barroro, are deep in the favelas, hunting down armed smugglers.
02:25They're in the middle of an arrest when Catarina and Paulo show up following a different trail,
02:29one that might lead to whoever attacked Cindy.
02:32Catarina doesn't approve of Santo's brutal methods.
02:35She calls him out for operating outside his jurisdiction and roughing up suspects.
02:39But Santo doesn't take criticism well.
02:41Instead of explaining himself, he tries to intimidate her.
02:44He accuses her of being too soft on the locals, blaming her for the rampant crime in their district.
02:50Crime that nearly led to the death of an American citizen.
02:53Before he can finish his tirade, a rock flies through the air, smacking him in the back.
02:58Tension skyrockets.
02:59Both cops and locals instinctively reach for their weapons, ready to turn the place into a war zone.
03:05Realizing they're outnumbered, Santo backs off and makes an offer.
03:08Your best fighter?
03:10Against mine.
03:12He challenges the strongest capoeira fighter among the locals, pitting him against his own partner, Barroro.
03:17If Barroro loses, the cops leave without making any arrests.
03:21The fight begins, but the outcome is never in doubt.
03:24The massive cop dodges kicks with surprising agility, flips through the air and knocks his opponent out cold.
03:31Santo laughs, loudly declaring that he and his men will return whenever they please.
03:35As he and his team leave, the locals glare at them with pure hatred.
03:39Meanwhile, Chapman lands in Brazil, greeted by U.S. Ambassador Manny Ridley, a fellow veteran and an old friend.
03:45Together, they visit the hospital, where Chapman sees Cindy in a coma.
03:50The sight of her, pale and lifeless, drags him back into his past.
03:54The memories of war flood in.
03:56Piles of bodies, bloodstained sand, the deafening silence after gunfire.
04:00Before he can fully process it, Santo walks in.
04:03Crime in the favela is very terrible.
04:05Manny introduces him as the lead detective on the case.
04:08He urges Chapman to stay calm and let the police handle things.
04:12Santo wastes no time making his stance clear.
04:15He tells Chapman that the favelas aren't a place for sightseeing.
04:19On the way to the crime scene, the two men exchange bleak worldviews.
04:23Santo talks about how kids here grow up to be the next generation of criminals.
04:27Chapman sees war everywhere, even in places where it isn't being fought.
04:32Both agree on one thing.
04:33The world is a cruel, unforgiving place.
04:37Arriving at the favelas, Chapman meets Katarina again.
04:40But just as she starts explaining the situation, a loud bang echoes through the air.
04:44His instincts kick in.
04:46Before he even thinks, his hand grabs Katarina's holstered gun.
04:50Turns out, it was just the backfire of an old truck.
04:53Chapman, my sidearm, please.
04:56Santo watches the veteran with caution.
04:58He tells Katarina to keep an eye on their American guest.
05:01As she leads Chapman through the streets, she paints a grim picture of life here.
05:06Clinics and schools, they aren't funded by the government anymore.
05:09Drug cartels pay the salaries.
05:11That's why the locals protect criminals.
05:14If they don't, they risk losing what little stability they have.
05:17For Katarina, this makes every move as a cop dangerous.
05:21One wrong decision could spark a massacre.
05:24Back at the hospital, Cindy's condition suddenly worsens.
05:27Chapman, who was sitting with her, rushes to call a nurse.
05:30But something is wrong.
05:32A few minutes earlier, a woman disguised as a doctor had been in Cindy's room.
05:35Now, Cindy's life support machines are unplugged.
05:39Someone tried to finish the job.
05:40Enraged, Chapman demands a police presence at Cindy's bedside 24-7.
05:45Then, he heads straight into the favelas, looking for answers.
05:49He tracks down a street kid named Kuka, the same one he saw near the beach where Cindy was found.
05:54As soon as Chapman sees the necklace around the kid's neck, his blood boils.
05:58It belonged to Cindy.
06:00He grabs Kuka, demanding answers.
06:01Kuka and his friends charge at Chapman, but they are no match for a seasoned Marine.
06:06The fight is over in seconds.
06:08Desperate, Kuka pulls a knife, but Chapman expertly disarms him, turning the blade back on the kid.
06:13The threat is real, but the language barrier keeps them from understanding each other.
06:18Just in time, Katarina arrives and diffuses the situation.
06:22She explains that Cindy had worked closely with Kuka's family.
06:25His sister, Maria, was also a victim.
06:27She vanished, without a trace.
06:29The necklace?
06:30It wasn't stolen.
06:31It was a gift, a symbol of friendship between Cindy and Maria.
06:35Realizing his mistake, Chapman eases up, and Kuka hands over Cindy's notebook.
06:39But something is off.
06:40Many pages have been ripped out.
06:42Flipping through the notebook, Chapman finds a contact, a photographer Cindy had recently worked with.
06:47Wasting no time, he calls and arranges a meeting at a cafe.
06:51The photographer reveals that Cindy had hired him for a project, documenting the harsh lives of children in the favelas.
06:57But there was something else.
06:58She had been digging into the disappearances of girls, ones who worked the streets at night.
07:04The photographer suspects this investigation put her in danger.
07:07Cindy also asked him to secretly photograph her meeting with an informant.
07:10According to him, she took all the photos, leaving nothing behind.
07:14Chapman thanks the man, embracing him, before slipping a flash drive from his pocket.
07:18As the photographer walks to his car, an explosion rips through the air.
07:23The vehicle erupts into flames, killing him instantly and injuring several bystanders.
07:28The shock sends Chapman into a spiral of war flashbacks.
07:31But in the chaos, something catches his eye.
07:34The same woman who had tried to kill Cindy in the hospital.
07:37Without hesitation, he takes off after her.
07:39Just as he turns a corner, a black SUV screeches into view.
07:43Gunmen armed with automatic weapons open fire.
07:45Chapman barely dodges the bullets, diving for cover.
07:48Nearby a security guard lies lifeless, an innocent casualty of the attack.
07:52Chapman grabs the fallen man's gun and returns fire, taking out a few of the assailants and forcing the others to flee.
07:59Later, in Ridley's office, Chapman recounts the ambush.
08:02He mentions the strange tattoos on the attacker's arms, suspecting they were members of the Japanese underworld.
08:09The woman he chased also had an unmistakably eastern appearance.
08:13They plug in the stolen flash drive.
08:15Among the photos, one stands out.
08:17Cindy captured a man outside a nightclub.
08:20Ridley immediately recognizes the location and drives Chapman there.
08:24Oh, that's a local nightclub. I know where that is.
08:26Inside the club, Chapman keeps a low profile, tracking the man from the photo.
08:30He follows him into the restroom and wastes no time.
08:34Within seconds, he has the guy pinned, his documents ripped from his hands.
08:39The man breaks under pressure, giving up the address of a high profile client who might be linked to Cindy's attack.
08:47The next day, Chapman and Ridley head to their new target, a lavish villa, a playground for the rich and powerful.
08:53Meanwhile, across the city, Santo and his unit prepare for a brutal raid on drug traffickers in the favelas.
09:01Santo coldly declares that there will be no mercy and orders his team to eliminate everyone in their path.
09:08Before the operation, he kneels and mutters a prayer, his version of making peace before unleashing hell.
09:13Put them in the ground!
09:15Moments later, his team storms the area.
09:18There are no arrests, just bodies hitting the ground.
09:21At the villa, Chapman's arrival doesn't go unnoticed.
09:24A call is made to a woman upstairs.
09:26His presence is reported to an elegant but deadly-looking Asian woman counting stacks of cash.
09:32She barely reacts, instructing the guards not to bother the boss, Hiromoto.
09:37Chapman is escorted onto a balcony.
09:39Below, he spots a van pulling up.
09:41The doors open and young girls are led out, among them Maria, Kuka's missing sister.
09:46Before he can react, a garrote tightens around his throat.
09:49A guard tries to strangle him from behind.
09:51But Chapman isn't an easy target.
09:53He fights back, breaking free and knocking the man out cold.
09:57Slipping into the shadows, he follows the traffickers, keeping out of sight.
10:00The place is swarming with armed men.
10:02Japanese yakuza, just as he suspected.
10:05Back in the favelas, the massacre continues.
10:07One of Santo's men spots a group of yakuza in sleek black suits leading children toward a vehicle.
10:13Instinctively, he steps in to stop them.
10:15Santo, ever the manipulator, commends his officer for his bravery before casually drawing his gun and executing him on the spot.
10:22The yakuza are free to go.
10:24With the situation handled, Santo makes a call to his employers.
10:28The woman on the other end assures him that his payment will be waiting at the port.
10:33Then she dials another number.
10:35Her boss, Hiromoto, there's a problem.
10:37The American is getting in the way, and it's time to eliminate him.
10:40As she relays this, Lema, the man from the nightclub, stands before Hiromoto, awaiting judgment.
10:46The mistake of letting his documents fall into Chapman's hands was costly.
10:50One swift slice of a samurai sword later,
10:54and Lema is dead.
10:56Meanwhile, Chapman moves deeper into enemy territory.
10:59It doesn't take long for Hiromoto's men to spot him.
11:02He takes on five at once, using nothing but his fists and a stolen briefcase.
11:06But before he can finish, Santo and Bororo step in, guns aimed.
11:11They demand the briefcase.
11:12Gunfire alerts Katarina and her partner,
11:15who arrived just in time to disrupt whatever Santo had planned.
11:19Forced to maintain appearances, the corrupt detective plays along,
11:22following Chapman as he leads them to the room where the kidnapped girls were being held.
11:27But it's empty.
11:28The victims have already been moved.
11:30Frustrated, but undeterred, Chapman hands over the briefcase,
11:34knowing the documents inside link the Yakuza to human trafficking.
11:37Santo insists on taking the evidence into custody.
11:41It's only as Chapman turns to leave that the realization hits him.
11:44He never mentioned Lema's name.
11:46That means Santo already knew.
11:48Something clicks.
11:49Santo is in on it.
11:51Chapman immediately tells Katarina to check on Cindy at the hospital while he follows the detective.
11:56Hidden inside Santo's car, he watches as the man drives to the port.
12:00Meanwhile, Katarina arrives just in time,
12:03seconds before a hired assassin can finish what they started.
12:06The killer barely has time to react before Katarina takes them down.
12:10At the port, Chapman watches from the shadows.
12:12Santo stands with Yakuza associates as the kidnapped children are ushered into a storage warehouse,
12:18awaiting transport to Japan.
12:20It's all the confirmation he needs.
12:22Calling Ridley, he reports everything.
12:24But his old friend warns him against acting alone.
12:27Chapman doesn't listen.
12:28He never does.
12:29Using every bit of his military training,
12:31he moves unseen through the port,
12:33taking out guards one by one.
12:35His brutal efficiency turns the tide in his favor.
12:39But then, Santo, the two lock eyes, guns drawn.
12:42A firefight erupts, ending with Chapman pushing a forklift into the corrupt detective,
12:47pinning his leg.
12:48Before he can finish the job, Bororo blindsides him, knocking his weapon loose.
12:52The enforcer launches into a brutal capoeira attack, but Chapman fights smarter.
12:57Fancy flips and acrobatics don't mean much when raw power and precision take over.
13:02Santo frees himself from the wreckage and joins the fight.
13:05Still, even together, they struggle to take Chapman down.
13:08Then, Hiromoto steps in, wielding his katana.
13:11The Yakuza boss moves with deadly grace, slicing Chapman's arm, forcing him on the defensive.
13:17Now, it's three against one.
13:18Santo lunges with a knife, but in a swift counter,
13:21Chapman turns the blade back on him, driving it deep into Bororo's leg instead.
13:26A moment later, he knocks Santo unconscious with a brutal punch.
13:29Then, he rips the detective's chain from his neck and drives it into his chest,
13:34straight to the heart.
13:35Only Hiromoto remains.
13:37Chapman grabs two steel pipes, using them to block and redirect the sword's deadly slashes.
13:43He twists, locking the blade in place, directing it toward the Yakuza boss's throat.
13:47Just when it seems like he has the upper hand,
13:50Hiromoto's hidden blade flicks out from his sword's hilt, stabbing Chapman in the gut.
13:55That was a mistake.
13:56Fueled by sheer determination, Chapman channels his last reserves of strength,
14:01delivering bone-crushing blows to Hiromoto's skull until the crime lord collapses.
14:07Nearby, Santo, bleeding out, tosses Chapman a key.
14:11It unlocks a locker containing records of every corrupt official tied to the operation.
14:16Police, judges, even government figures.
14:18Santo, knowing his time is up, mutters that he did many terrible things.
14:22But Cindy wasn't one of them.
14:25As he takes his last breath, Hiromoto makes a final desperate move.
14:28Chapman doesn't hesitate. He empties several rounds into him, ending it once and for all.
14:33As he walks away, Chapman leaves a gun beside Santo's broken body, a final mercy.
14:38Ridley and the authorities arrive soon after.
14:41Chapman personally frees the kidnapped children.
14:44Cindy survives, but the damage is severe.
14:47She will need extensive medical treatment.
14:50Ridley offers to cover the costs on one condition.
14:53Chapman must work for him as an undercover operative.
14:56Ridley already knows the answer.
14:57Before he even accepts, Chapman is given a new identity.
15:01His old marine call sign, Falcon.
