At the beginning of the movie, an American general mourned his wife at the tombstone. A group of his comrades-in-arms were subordinates who were killed by the enemy but were not recognized by the government. These people cannot be recognized because they were North Vietnamese officers who had entered a nuclear country several times during the Vietnam War to attack and recuperate their wounds. After they succeeded once, that country arranged a trap for their behavior, and they were wiped out after they entered again. After the Vietnam War, their bodies were traded back. But their government did not recognize that behavior. After mourning for his men for a while, the general decided to take action.
The general who has experienced many battles and won many medals is called Hanmer. He led his subordinates to steal 15 new VX gas bombs. Then they took control of Akara Island. This was originally a prison, but now it has become a tourist destination, commonly known as Alcatraz Island. All tourists on the island became hostages. General Hammer used gas bombs and hostages to ask the country 100 million U.S. dollars to compensate the Marines who were unfairly treated.
FBI Director Ferguson held a meeting with the Department of Defense and decided to send a commando team to the island. However, the Akara Prison is very tightly guarded and monitored. It is called "Alcatraz Island." No one has ever successfully escaped from the prison, so the commando has no way to enter the Akara Prison. In the top secret national archives, there is an old British agent Mason who successfully escaped from Akara. Only he can complete this mission. In order to persuade Mason to take someone into Akara Island, Ferguson made a false promise to him, telling him that he would be pardoned and regain his freedom. Mason and the chemical expert Stanley, together with the commandos on this raid mission, successfully entered the Akara prison through the underground tunnel. But unexpectedly, the susceptor that had been placed was discovered, and the commando was discovered and surrounded. In the melee, all the commandos were killed, only Mason and Stanley managed to escape. Stanley told Mason the truth about the matter and asked him to help dismantle the gas missile. Mason finally agreed.
ending
After dismantling 12 missiles, Hammer's men captured them. In prison, Mason told Stanley that he was arrested because he was in possession of a top-secret film of the U.S. government, which has not expired today. After his arrest, he became a person not recognized by Britain and the United States. Mason opened the door by escape, and the two escaped from the prison to dismantle the remaining missiles. And Hammer's subordinates have discovered that the government is deceiving them, but because General Hammer, who is a real soldier, does not agree to use gas bombs to kill innocent people at all, there is a melee inside. Hammer was seriously injured and died after telling Stanley the location of the last missile. At the same time, the government sent bombers to destroy the island. After a fierce and tense struggle, the two finally dismantled the gas bomb and successfully completed the task. While Stanley was igniting the green flare, the bomber also released missiles. Fortunately, the hostages on the island did not suffer casualties.
Mason and Stanley survived by jumping into the sea in time. Stanley took this opportunity to report to Ferguson that Mason was dead, but let him go. Before Mason left, he told Stanley where the film was hidden.
