action

Casey and Will Alexander may be brothers, but they are fundamentally different. The only one who still holds them together is their father, John Alexander. Casey followed his father's path and ended up with the CIA , his father is now retired. Will, on the other hand, is a karate master and is viewed as a no-good by his brother Casey.

They both meet again at their father's birthday party. However, they argue and Will drives away with his VW Beetle . When their father is killed by a gang boss named Franco, the two brothers go out to get revenge on their father's murderer. While Casey uses his FBI contacts to find Franco, Will infiltrates Franco's group. From this he receives the order to kill his own brother, which Will does not know. He is pursued by Franco's men who want to see if he really kills Casey, but the two brothers only fake Casey's death.

Will's wrong game is exposed by a corrupt undercover agent of the CIA who reveals Franco Will's true identity. Casey and an old friend break into Franco's headquarters, but are captured by the latter. Franco blackmailed Will into killing Casey if he didn't kidnap an African ambassador at the Florida airport . Will consents. Casey escapes with his girlfriend and helps Will at the airport. The two brothers realize that Franco is by no means targeting the ambassador, but rather the President of the USA. However, you can thwart the attack.

In the hangar of the airport there is the final showdown between the two brothers against Franco and his best fighter. While Will can kill Franco's assistants, both are inferior to Franco. Casey can barely save his brother from falling off a scaffold. Then suddenly the corrupt agent appears who unexpectedly kills Franco. He stated that in his report for the CIA he wanted to write that he was there when Franco shot the two brothers and he then killed Franco. In this way he wanted to present himself and thus the CIA as the savior of the president and help the organization to better publicity. When he finally wants to kill the two brothers, Casey's girlfriend shoots him from behind. Casey and Will have become real brothers at the end of the film.
