Tom Buckingham (Sam Heughan), a suspended special forces operator, is taking Dr Sophie Hart (Hannah John-Kamen) from London to Paris to propose. When their train is deep inside the Channel Tunnel, heavily armed mercenaries, led by Grace Lewis (Ruby Rose), seize control of it and hold everyone hostage. Grace threatens to blow up the Channel Tunnel and declare economic war on a government that has its fair share of secrets to keep. Unarmed and cut off from his counter terror team, Tom is the only hope that Sophie and the other passengers have to make it out alive. To save them he must embrace the unique psychology that makes Grace such a formidable adversary. (Universal Pictures UK)

Ruby Rose and her squad hijacked a train heading from London to Paris. Fortunately, SAS member Tom Buckingham is among the passengers. Unfortunately for the audience, it's all a pretty bad film. SAS: Red Notice can't decide if it's going to be a serious political thriller or a B-grade variation on Die Hard. Sadly, it disappoints in both character work and tension, as well as the action itself, teetering between awkward and ridiculous most of the time.

Oh man, what a mess this one was. Netflix dives headfirst into B-movie action territory again. If this had come out in the 90s, it would’ve made a killing in the bootleg VHS market. But today? The main character is about as emotional as a brick wall.
