Overview
Corporal Evan Albright joined the elite Marine Corps Security Guards to save the world and see some action-not necessarily in that order. But his first assignment, protecting a U. S. Embassy in a seemingly safe Middle Eastern capitol, relegates his unit to wrangling “gate groupies” protesting outside the compound and honing their marksmanship by playing video games. So Albright and his team are caught off guard when well-armed and well-trained militants launch a surprise attack aimed at killing an informant in the embassy. Heavily out-gunned, they will have to muster all the courage and fire power they can as their once routine assignment spirals into all-out war.

Viewing Notes
Didn’t realize what the premise was until I was into the film so quite a coincidence to view this on 9/11, which is referenced in the movie.
Scott Adkins is top billed but not the lead, which he should’ve been but that was probably part of the deal he made to be in the film (and not having to do a whole lot). Overall I like the movie but hate the plot device it employs to kick off the siege (no one believes Albright that a siege is imminent).
