Realizing that they terrorists could be planning to blow the rest of the bridge to make their escape, Daniels begins to take action.  What chance has one man got against a motivated, well-armed military unit?

Thoughts (beware of spoilers)…

Aftermath depends on the extensive use of cgi.  Unfortunately the cgi isn’t very good.  The story and acting is just a step above the computer graphics.

Aftermath (2024) rates 2 of 5 stars.
