Written and produced by French director Luc Besson (Ong- Bak, The Fifth Element) Unleashed tells the suspenseful story of Danny (Jet Li), an unrivalled martial arts expert enslaved by a vicious gangster (Hoskin) who uses him as a human attack dog to terrorize his victims. Morgan Freeman is Sam, a warm-hearted blind man who befriends Danny and tries to show him another side of life. But renouncing his old existence won’t be easy for Danny, especially when his brutal former master unleashes an army of killers to track him down.

Choreographed by master fight coordinator Yuen Wo Ping, the man behind the fight scenes in all three Matrix films and Kill Bill Vol.1 & 2, the state of the art action is set against a heart-pounding soundtrack from multi-platinum hip-hop star RZA (Kill Bill Vol.1 & 2, Blade: Trinity) and Massive Attack.

Jet Li stars as Danny, a human attack dog for a powerful mobster he calls Uncle Bart (Bob Hoskins, looking resplendent in white suit after white suit). When Bart and his men go out on their collection runs, they bring Danny, who has been trained since he was a child to fight to kill. When Bart takes Danny's collar off and commands, 'Get 'im', Danny goes to work, an unstoppable machine, using the only weapon he knows: his body.

But when a turf war ends up in bloody carnage, Danny escapes and is taken in by a kind family consisting of blind piano tuner Sam (Morgan Freeman) and his teenage stepdaughter, Victoria (Kerry Condon). They teach Danny how to be a real person, to be able to act civilly in society. They also allow Danny to explore his love of the piano, where a specific tune haunts him, bringing up repressed memories from his long-ago past. Just when Danny thinks he has escaped from his former life, he is pulled back in, but he is no longer the trained dog Bart thinks he is… thrilling stuff.
