Our take
After a downtown Los Angeles terrorist attack, federal agents barricade inside a secure facility and start suspecting a traitor. Gunfights, explosions, standoffs, torture talk, and near-constant strong profanity pile on the pressure. Dialogue also cites a veteran suicide statistic. ClearAge puts it around 16 for older teens and adults already steady with intense action; younger kids should sit this one out.
Uplifting themes
Again and again, people push for cooperation so the group can survive the lockdown A few agents try to cool things down, yet suspicion still swamps most of their choices
Story (may spoil tone)
Trapped in a high-security safe house after a terrorist attack in downtown Los Angeles, six government agents realize they must survive not just the enemy outside, but the potential traitor among them.

Talk after watching
- No one trusts anyone inside the safe house. How does fear change how people treat teammates?
- The agents represent different agencies with different rules. Why is cooperation hard under pressure?
