Augustus Gibbons (Samuel
L. Jackson) of the National Security Agency has successfully dealt with a number
of threats to America's safety, but he faces a whole new challenge when he
discovers a potent terrorist cell that has ties to the upper levels of the
American military. Gibbons learns that George Deckert (Willem Dafoe), the
secretary of defense, has been training a secret military faction to stage a
coup against the United States by kidnapping and assassinating the president of
the United States (Peter Strauss). Convinced there's no one he can trust within
his circle of operatives, Gibbons turns to Darius Stone (Ice Cube), currently
serving time in a maximum security penitentiary. Stone once served with Gibbons
in the Army, and also took part in a mutiny against Deckert; despite his
reckless side, Gibbons is certain Stone's fearless nature and peerless fighting
skills make him the one man who can take on Deckert and his troops.
