When her family is murdered by a group of corrupt officers led by the tyrannical Norman Stansfield, a young 12-year-old girl enlists the help of an Italian-American hitman to seek revenge.
“This visceral action-drama creates an unlikely father-daughter bond between a stoic hitman and a revenge-seeking twelve-year-old that transcends its violent premise through genuine emotional depth. The film balances stylized action sequences with intimate character moments, anchored by powerhouse performances that make you care deeply about these damaged souls finding solace in each other. Some versions contain problematic romantic undertones that detract from the otherwise pure relationship at its core.”
Fans of character-driven action films and unconventional family stories who appreciate stylized violence paired with genuine emotional depth
