Hot Mexico City. Almost every day, in the city of lost children. Kidnapping is one of the most lucrative criminal activities. At the invitation of an old friend, John Creasy gets a job as a bodyguard for a little girl. Pete is the only daughter in a wealthy family. Parents are willing to fork out generously for the safety of the girl's health. John is extremely reclusive people and believes that professional ethics are more important than feelings. Time passes, simple communication between Pita and her bodyguard develops into a real friendship.
Kidnapping burns the last feelings of our hero. He turns into a killing machine. Task - to release the girl and to destroy everyone who was involved in her disappearance. Many people want to benefit from the situation, but John does his thing. Anger begins to turn into a flame.
In my opinion, this is one of the most striking films of Hollywood. "Man on Fire" is not allocated a specific plot or special effects (although the work with the "image" commendable). Its main feature is that all the excess cut off, it simply does not exist. At the same time, the film is filled with emotions. Sympathize with the character Denzel Washington. This work Tony Scott makes him an outstanding director. Pleasant viewing!
