Plot Summary


Here is the rephrased text:

Lance Sterling (Will Smith), a suave and confident operative of H.T.U.V. (Honor, Trust, Unity and Valor), embarks on a perilous mission to retrieve an attack drone from Japanese arms dealer Katsu Kimura (Masi Oka) in Japan. As the buyer, the formidable cybernetically enhanced terrorist Killian (Ben Mendelsohn), arrives with his arsenal of stolen HTUV drones, Sterling defies orders and breaks into Kimura’s stronghold, defeating the gang leader and his cohorts to escape with the briefcase containing the drone.

Upon his return to H.T.U.V. headquarters, Sterling confronts Walter Beckett (Tom Holland), a socially awkward yet brilliant young scientist who had equipped Sterling’s suit with nonlethal weapons. Walter pitches Sterling on a more peaceful approach to global salvation, hinting at his latest invention: “biodynamic concealment”. However, Sterling fires him before he can fully explain the concept, unaware of the chaos that would soon ensue.

Sterling discovers the briefcase to be empty and is subsequently confronted by Marcy Kappel (Rashida Jones), a sharp-eyed security forces agent, who reveals footage of Sterling (actually Killian in a holographic disguise) leaving with the drone, branding him a traitor. With his reputation tarnished, Sterling sets out to clear his name by tracking down Walter and seeking his help in disappearing.

Meanwhile, Killian infiltrates the H.T.U.V. weapons facility, setting the stage for an epic battle. As Sterling searches Walter’s home for his invention, he unknowingly ingests the concoction, transforming into a pigeon. Before Walter can brew an antidote to reverse the effects, they must evade Marcy and her team of agents, who are hot on their heels.

The unlikely duo escapes in Sterling’s high-tech spy car and tracks down Kimura to a luxurious resort in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. There, they uncover Killian’s whereabouts in Venice, Italy, just as Marcy and the H.T.U.V. close in. In a desperate bid to change his bird-like form back into that of a human, Walter attempts to concoct an antidote on their journey to Venice, but ultimately fails.

As Walter sets foot in Venice, he’s met with a surprise visit from the H.T.U.V., oblivious to Sterling’s (Rachel Brosnahan) precarious state. Marcy attempts to persuade him to betray his friend, exploiting his emotional connection by revealing her knowledge of Wendy, Walter’s mother, a dedicated police officer who sacrificed her life in the line of duty. However, Walter remains resolute in his refusal to turn Sterling in, despite the temptation.

In a daring move, a stray drone momentarily distracts the H.T.U.V., allowing Walter and Sterling to make their escape. As they flee, they stumble upon the rogue drone, which just so happens to be carrying the H.T.U.V.’s agent database. Walter seizes the opportunity to retrieve it, only for Killian to appear, swoop in, and snatch the database. With a sinister intent, he prepares to eliminate Walter.

Enter an unlikely ally: hundreds of pigeons in the surrounding area, who conspire to divert Killian’s attention with a clever display of aerial acrobatics. As Walter and Sterling make their getaway, they reprise their disguises, with Killian donning Sterling’s persona once more, complete with a synthetic right hand that raises Marcy’s suspicions.

Meanwhile, beneath the waves in a submerged submarine, Walter confesses to having planted a tracking device on Killian, leading him straight to the weapons facility. With the antidote perfected and Sterling restored to his human form, they devise a plan to take down Killian once and for all. Sterling dispatches Walter back to the submarine, cautioning him about the dangers ahead.

However, as Sterling confronts Killian at his hideout, he finds himself overpowered and captured. Killian revels in his victory, revealing a chilling twist: he’s mass-produced hundreds of drones, programmed to target everyone at the agency using the database as a vengeful reckoning for his fallen crew, whose demise was orchestrated by Sterling during a past mission.

In a heart-pumping sequence, Walter survives a catastrophic explosion that destroys the submarine, thanks in part to an ingenious invention - the inflatable hug. He manages to free Sterling and together they escape into the fray as the drones close in on H.T.U.V. headquarters in Washington D.C.

With time running out, Walter attempts to hack into Killian’s bionic arm, prompting Killian to stage a desperate bid for freedom via air with one of his robotic minions. Walter gives chase, putting his life on the line by trapping Killian in a protective device and disabling his mechanical limb as he falls, but Sterling, now back in his human form (minus his tiny right hand), takes to the skies for the first time, carried safely to safety by a flock of pigeons.

In a bittersweet conclusion, despite their heroics, Sterling and Walter are initially relieved of their duties due to insubordination. However, they’re soon reinstated by the H.T.U.V., recognizing that Walter’s more peaceful approach to villainy offers valuable lessons for the agency.
