“The Protege” Ultimate Revenge, Absolutely Lowest

Directed by Martin Campbell, The Protege follows Anna, played by Maggie Q, rescued as a child by the legendary assassin Moody, played by Samuel L. Jackson, and trained in the family business. Anna is the world’s most skilled contract killer.

But when Moody — the man who was like a father to her and taught her everything she needs to know about trust and survival — someone brutally kills him, Anna vows revenge.

As she becomes entangled with an enigmatic killer, played by Michael Keaton, whose attraction to her goes way beyond cat and mouse, their confrontation turns deadly, and the loose ends of a life spent killing will weave themselves even tighter.

The film has strong and bloody violence, language, some sexual references, and brief nudity with an R rating.
