Our take

A US R German action thriller on Netflix about an ex-soldier whose son vanishes inside a US R.S. consulate. She fights through security and assassins with gunfire, bloody injuries and flashbacks to wartime trauma. Strong language and conspiracy violence run throughout. Best for about 14 and up; the missing-child premise may distress parents of young kids.

Uplifting themes

Courage, perseverance and a mother's love fuel the rescue mission Training and grit help the lead protect her child and expose corruption

Story (may spoil tone)
