There was promise in this story of a former commune member being recruited to infiltrate the cult-like Program run by well-armed, highly trained, and eternally devoted Shinjas.

The program which began as a government-funded veterans’ support group, has since mutated into a dangerous cult under its messianic leader, Leon Prudhomme/ The Bokushi (Jamie Foxx).

Nash Cavanaugh (Scott Eastwood), a former soldier and ex-follower of the cult, is recruited by government agent, Emmanuel Ashburn (De Niro), to infiltrate the compound of the man he once followed. Incidentally, Nash’s wife, Evoli, presumed dead, may be alive and living inside the commune. So the bait is strong enough to lure the decrepit former soldier into making a final salvo for redemption.
