Spoiler-Free Synopsis

Read MoreCollapse

John Frankenheimer's crime thriller sequel moves the action to France; and from a fictionalised account of detective James 'Popeye' Doyle's exploits to an adventure that's purely fictional. Doyle is sent across the Atlantic to track down heroin trafficker Alain Charnier on his home turf in Marseille. Unable to speak French and feeling hemmed in by his Gallic hosts, Doyle decides to strike out on his own and capture the kingpin by himself. This proves to be a very poor decision, for he is kidnapped by his prey and has a terrible form of revenge inflicted upon him. Down, but not quite out, Doyle steels himself for one last attempt to bring down his nemesis.
