The storyline revolves around war hero Colonel Lee Gunner (enacted by Luke Hemsworth), who embarks on a camping trip with his sons, Luke and Travis, to reconnect after years of military service. What begins as a serene outing transforms into a nightmare when they stumble upon a dangerous biker gang’s drug enterprise accidentally. The gang, headed by Kendric Ryker and his son Dobbs, underestimates Gunner’s combat prowess.
Freeman, playing the role of Uncle Jon, brings weight to the film. Despite the seemingly predictable premise, the interplay between Freeman and Hemsworth is captivating. When Gunner’s sons are abducted, the movie escalates, featuring intense fight sequences and tactical combat as Gunner eliminates gang members, culminating in a final confrontation with Ryker, who coordinates his operations from prison.
