A wave of kidnappings has swept through Mexico, and in one six-day period, there were twenty-four abductions, leading many parents to hire bodyguards for their children.

Into this world enters John Creasy (Denzel Washington), a burned out ex-CIA operative, who has given up on life. Creasy's friend Rayburn brings him to Mexico City to be a bodyguard to nine-year-old Pita Ramos (Dakota Fanning), daughter of industrialist Samuel Ramos and his wife Lisa. Creasy is not interested in being a bodyguard, especially to a child, but for lack of something better to do, he accepts the assignment. Creasy barely tolerates the precocious child but slowly, they start to understand each other and become friends.

Creasy's new-found purpose in life is shattered when Pita is kidnapped. His firey rage is unleashed on anyone involved in or profiting from the kidnapping. No one can stop him.
