Crime thriller set in Stalin-era Soviet Russia. In a state where crime isn't supposed to exist, pro-Stalin security officer Leo Demidov (Tom Hardy) begins to investigate a series of child murders. For his ignorance and betrayal of state policy, Leo finds himself demoted and exiled from the country he believed he was perfecting. Nevertheless, the persistent war hero pursues the case with only his wife Raisa (Noomi Rapace) for help. With his loyalty and beliefs shattered, Leo must try to find a killer who supposedly doesn't exist before his victim count rises further. But having been denounced, Leo may be in danger from a force far bigger than the free-roaming killer.
A collection of films featuring the Irish actor Liam Neeson. In 'Rob Roy' (1995), the Scottish hero Rob Roy (Neeson) borrows money from the powerful Marquess of Montrose (John Hurt) in order to provide for his MacGregor clan. However, Montrose's evil henchman Cunningham (Tim Roth) has other ideas and is determined to stop Roy getting his way. In 'Kingdom of Heaven' (2005), Orlando Bloom plays a humble blacksmith who discovers that he is the son of a knight, and travels to the Holy Land to fight in the crusades. In the thriller 'Taken' (2008), Neeson stars as Bryan, a former CIA secret agent living in the US who is obliged to resurrect the skills he learned in his old job after his estranged 17-year-old daughter Kim (Maggie Grace) is kidnapped by sex slave traffickers while travelling with a friend in Europe. Finally, in 'The A-Team' (2010), four Iraq war veterans, led by Col. John 'Hannibal' Smith (Neeson), are on the run from the US military who suspect them of committing a crime and set about trying to clear their names. Becoming mercenaries and employing a wide range of uniquely offensive skills mixed in with a healthy dose of eccentric behaviour, Smith and his cohorts, 'Faceman' Peck (Bradley Cooper), 'Howling Mad' Murdock (Sharlto Copley) and 'B.A.' Baracus (Quinton Jackson), set out to right the wrong done to them by any means necessary - and some that aren't - all the while pursued by military tracker Charisa Sosa (Jessica Biel).
