Elyas

Elyas, a former Special Forces soldier who has become paranoid since a mission in Afghanistan, is recruited to ensure the safety of Amina and her daughter Nour, 13 years old, both of whom came from the Middle East for the holidays. As he takes office, Elyas senses something is up. Are his fellow security guards playing a double game? Who are these mysterious individuals seen near the property? Is this just his paranoia talking? Under pressure, Elyas fights to keep his demons at bay. But when hell breaks loose on the family, Elyas no longer has a choice: he must once again become the formidable warrior he was.

Elyas is master class in how to make a frenetic, engaging military action flick. This film is wall to wall action that not only does not stop it gets better and better, as the film progresses. It even manages to have a decent, if familiar, back story to tie things together. In summary, its been a long time since I have enjoyed a military style action film this much. A must watch for those of us who enjoy this genre.
