After his teenage daughter is killed in a terrorist bombing, a grieving London businessman demands answers from a government official with a troubled past.

My take

You’ll like this if you want a serious, gritty revenge thriller with political intrigue and restrained action; Not for you if you expect lighthearted martial arts or nonstop fights.
