The story centers on Roy Pulver (Frank Grillo), a retired special forces soldier who finds himself trapped in a time loop, reliving the same day over and over again. Each day, Roy is hunted by a group of assassins and killed in increasingly brutal and creative ways. Despite his best efforts, he is unable to survive past a certain point in the day.
As Roy repeats the loop, he begins to piece together clues about why he is stuck in this situation. He discovers that the time loop is connected to a top-secret government project run by the sinister Colonel Clive Ventor (Mel Gibson). With the help of his ex-wife, Jemma Wells (Naomi Watts), who is a scientist working on the project, and a martial arts expert named Dai Feng (Michelle Yeoh), Roy sets out to break the loop and save his family.
The film combines elements of action, science fiction, and dark comedy, with intense fight scenes and a fast-paced narrative. Roy’s repeated attempts to survive the day and uncover the truth lead to both humorous and poignant moments as he confronts his past mistakes and fights for a future.
