Trigger warning: This movie contains profanity, violence, and graphic scenes that feature blood. This TV-MA movie is Rated R due to its adult material. 

Do you need a new movie to add to your watchlist? Well, I have a fantastic film recommendation that can be classified as a thriller, drama, and adventure movie all in one that’ll keep you on the edge of your seat. 

SPOILERS AHEAD! 

This film is set in Phoenix, Arizona at the Odyssey center, where former Army Special Forces officer, Jesse Freeman is now working as a security guard. Jesse chose this career move in order to spend more family time with his wife Alisha and their two kids, Mara and Ryan. 

The life that Jesse had in the military was shielded from his children and the current place where he’s employed. In the film, Jesse takes his kids to the season-opener basketball game at the area in the Odyssey Center while he works. During the game, the arena ends up being hijacked by tech-savvy hostiles who planned on killing everyone inside until their demands were met. Jesse takes up the job of defusing the bombs placed around the entire Odyssey Center. 

Imagine going to watch your favorite sports team at one of the greatest arenas in the world, and not knowing whether you would live by the end of the game. The world we live in today is full of uncertainty. It is best to be alert about your surroundings and to protect yourself when dangerous situations arise. 

Despite the film’s graphic and gory nature, I would give this movie a 10/10. If you live for action-packed films, go add this movie to your list right now! This movie is only featured on Netflix. 

Happy watching!
