Plot

[edit]

Brian Cheuk, a security specialist and martial arts teacher, visits his family in Hong Kong and helps to send his nephew to school.

Shortly after that, Charles, a disgruntled former British marine, takes the students hostage and plants bombs around the school. Charles is unhappy because his son was taken away by his ex-wife and her current husband, who are going to leave Hong Kong for the United States. He demands that his son be brought to him in exchange for the hostages.

Cheuk agrees to bring Charles's son to him. With help from Simna, Charles's brother-in-law, and Hung, a reporter, he rushes to the airport to find Charles's son.

Even after they find the boy, all is not over yet because their return journey is filled with danger. Both the police and the thugs – including a hired killer – are out to get them.
