Sometimes when things aren't going your way, you have to turn to people you don't want to deal with for help. Declan Mulqueen (Richard Gere) is in prison for his crimes while serving in the IRA. However, after gunning down the brother of Russian mafia don Terek Murad (David Hayman) and learning that he has sent the Jackal (Bruce Willis) after the head of the FBI Carter Preston (Sidney Poitier) and Russian Militia Agent Valentia Koslova (Diane Verona), Declan finds himself freed from his prison in search of the elusive Jackal. Finding him and remaining free and alive is Declan's greatest challange. Doing it before he kills Agent Preston or Agenlt Koslova might prove impossible.
