Mustered out after being wounded in Afghanistan, SAS sniper Ryan Logan (Sam Worthington) came home to work on family-and was succeeding until a car wreck claimed his pregnant wife (Phoebe Tonkin) and left him with their son Billy (Edward Carmody). With the passing of time, and dealing with Billy's profound issues no better than his own, the lure of fast cash from a heist-minded ex-CO (Matt Nable, who wrote and directed) may prove irresistible, in this dramatic thriller. 106 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.
