"Red Flames" is adapted from the WildStorm/DC comic of the same name. The comic was published in three volumes from 2003 to 2004, written by Warren Ellis and drawn by Cully Hamner. The story tells that Frank, Joe, Marvin and Victoria were senior CIA agents before they retired, but the secrets they knew made them the number one CIA hunter. One day, a well-armed assassin breaks into Frank's house and intends to kill him. At the same time, their companions were also killed. He decided that he could not sit still. He gathered a few old friends to make a first move. They crossed the United States and came to the CIA headquarters. They will uncover a big conspiracy in American history.

Like other manga adaptations, this film has a strong sense of action, but the plot is missing. So much so that I, who wrote a review after watching it for a few days, have forgotten the specific plot. Although I tried my best to recall and search my intestines and stomach, there was still no effect, so I had to give up. I can only say sorry for the acting Morgen Freeman taking on this kind of film.
