Andy's (Tip Cullen) an Afghanistan veteran who was nothing if not good at his job. But at the same time he has seen too many of his comrades die to not be emotionally damaged, traumatized even. Of course, he has long returned from Afghanistan and found a corporate job, and yet he has never really come to terms with civilian life. Then his estranged daughter Rachel (Saskia Rose) dies from smoking spiked crack - and it wasn't that Rachel was an actual addict, she was just curious like many 18 year olds are. However, somehow Andy gets hold of Rachel's phone and finds out that Rachel was the girlfriend of Cassius (Daniel Davids), son of local drug kingpin Callan (Alex Montagnani), and so he soon gathers his former brothers in arms (Tom Leigh, Steven Glades, Luke Solomon) to help him have his revenge on those he thinks responsible for his daughter's death - even if they all know taking on an entire drug cartel on their own might be a bigger bite than they can chew on ...

Granted, in writing, Sunray: Fallen Soldier might sound like your routine archaic revenge tale - but really the film is not as it focuses on emotional depth and coping with grief much more than on getting even, and the film goes out of its way to not actually condone the actions of its deeply disturbed protagonist, basically making this a character study. That said though, the film is rather relentless in its action scenes which are all well-conveived and executed, and it moves at a high pace to keep one entertained amidst all the trauma that carries the plot. And a very competent cast of course only help making this a cool piece of uncharacteristically (but welcomely) thoughtful action entertainment.
