A high-octane buddy-film romp that pairs a cyborg fugitive with an unlikely companion, balancing kinetic action and absurdist humor against a backdrop of relentless pursuit.

A prototype enhanced human, on the run from Chinese-hired hit men, hooks up with a dread-locked bystander, and the two of them elude their pursuers narrowly each time.
