The thriller follows Wallace Reed (Mel Gibson) on a dangerous bomb-defusing mission. As a veteran bomb squad officer, Reed must navigate a high-risk situation where a mysterious caller has planted countless bombs throughout the city. The caller targets hacker and IT support technician Orlando Friar (Kevin Dillon), alerting him that there’s a bomb attached to the bottom of his desk chair, set to go off if he stands up. Friar must help the caller hack into hedge fund accounts to stay alive. Reed is determined to collaborate with Friar to save lives. Directed by James Cullen Bressack.
