    PLOT Killed after taking part in a hostage rescue, Marine Ray Garrison (Diesel) is brought back to life by scientist Emil Harting (Pearce). Yet he is not only back from the dead: he’s super-enhanced and ready for revenge.

Yet, based on a 1992 Valiant comic book creation, delivers an origin story about a military man brought back from the dead to become a super-soldier that rarely finds the spark or any potential richness in the conceit. Directed by VFX supervisor Dave Wilson, it has moments of visual flair but feels hamstrung by dull writing and a leading man sleepwalking through the tech and the bullets.
