The life of a young courageous and dangerous mobster named Terek Murad, who once upon the murder of his brother, who has been murdered in a nightclub in Moscow, has been changed completely, as he makes his mind to revenge, so he hires a dangerous criminal, in order to kill the head of the detectives.
A fast-paced, underrated reworking of the often-sluggish Day of the Jackal. Willis is good as the villainous title character. More enjoyable than anyone wanted to admit.

The simple chase set-up is promising, but the follow-through is curiously lethargic and suspenseless.
There's a certain novelty factor at work here that may appeal to die-hard Willis fans... As to everyone else, it's hard to imagine why they'd want to bother.
