"He's L.A. Detective Mason Storm. Three hired assassins left him for dead. And he's waited seven years to even the score."
Boxlist takeA breakneck action film that is weighty, heightened and familiar. Best if you like pace over patience.

Synopsis
Mason Storm, a 'go it alone' cop, is gunned down at home. The intruders kill his wife, and think they've killed both Mason and his son too. Mason is secretly taken to a hospital where he spends several years in a coma. His son meanwhile is growing up thinking his father is dead. When Mason wakes up, everyone is in danger - himself, his son, his best friend, his nurse - but most of all those who arranged for his death
