Allegedly the story here is that a father, stricken with grief and suddenly without vocal chords, seeks revenge for his son’s death via gang violence. But I can’t confirm or deny that because there was no dialogue and the ‘action sequences’ were laughable at best. Action, camera work, and acting were all so sloppy.
If you’re looking for something that checks certain boxes, (ie. main character never speaks, lots of action, odd cinematography choices, virtually no plot)… then just watch Hardcore Henry. It’s stupid, but it’s better than whatever John Woo was trying to do here.
