šScarlett Johansson, Jason Statham
ā 8/10 ā An intense, thrilling action thriller starring Jason Statham at his very best.
In the heart of the ruthless Arizona desert, Jack āApacheā Mercer (Jason Statham), an elite ex-soldier, lives clandestine after being betrayed by his own government. Formerly a top-ranking agent, Mercer was pronounced dead following the failure of a covert mission. Now, he’s a ghost, haunted by those who fear what he knows.
When Black Horizon, a ruthless private military corporation led by ruthless Colonel Darius Kane (played by Clive Owen), begins attacking a remote indigenous reserve to seize hidden uranium deposits, Mercer is forced to jump back into action. With the help of Lena Greywolf (Zoe Saldana), a fierce tribal leader and former CIA whistleblower, Mercer discovers a conspiracy that deepens into government corruption.
As Black Horizon sharpens, Mercer turns the desert into its battleground, employing guerrilla tactics, expert marksmanship, and brutal hand-to-hand combat. Facing an overwhelming situation, he teams up with Lena and a group of warriors to defeat Kane’s army. In an explosive climax, Mercer confronts Kane in a brutal head-to-head combat, delivering his signature sensible justice.
With the battle won, but with the scars of war still deep, Mercer disappears once again into the desert, a legend known only as Apache, the man who fights for those who cannot.
