| Haywire - They Gave
Her No Choice |
Synopsis
The action-thriller HAYWIRE brings mixed martial
arts star Gina Carano to the big screen for the very
first time and pairs her with celebrity heavyweights
Michael Douglas, Antonio Banderas, Ewan McGregor and
Academy Award winning Director Steven Soderberg. Her
role as double-crossed government operative Mallory
Kane sends her into battle against sinister forces
from within her own agency, forcing her to use her
wits and fists to defeat her enemies and find her
way home.
The rogue spy drama is a classic tale told by
many screenwriters in many ways, but Director Steven
Soderberg creates a fast-paced and highly
entertaining joyride of a film in which the talented
cast trades hard hits and sharp wits to great
effect. First time actress Carano (Mallory Kane)
joins former-model-turned-actor Channing Tatum on an
action-packed hostage rescue of a Chinese dissident
through the streets of Barcelona. She delivers her
man safely into the hands of Antonio Banderas who
stages a tricky double-cross and turns the hostage
over to evil assassins.
To cover their tracks, the bad guys try to pin
the man's murder on Mallory Kane, but the clever
agent foils their plans and turns the tables on her
adversaries to save her life and her good name. She
joins spy Michael Fassbender in London as part of a
covert couple out on the town only to discover he is
setting her up for the dissident's murder. Once they
return to their room, the fierce fistfight staged
within the confines of a posh hotel suite leads Kane
to realize that her own boss and former lover (Ewan
McGregor) is part of the plot against her.
Returning to the United States, Agent Kane must
confront her adversaries, do battle with her
double-crossing boss and save her own father (Bill
Paxton) from the clutches of rival agents holding
him captive to leverage her surrender. In the end,
the bad guys fall, the plot to discredit her is
revealed and each evil man gets just what he
deserves at the hands of this wily girl spy!
