“Do you?”

From The Rhythm Section.

Three years after Flight 147 crashed, killing everyone on board, a secondary victim is plagued by the crash.  While Stephanie (Blake Lively) stayed behind, her parents and siblings boarded the plane as planned and were killed.  Now a drug addict and a prostitue, Stephanie is trying to block out the world until a reporter, Eric Proctor (Raza Jaffrey) finds her and tells her that the crash was caused by a bomb, not engine failure.  Proctor tells Stephanie that he has his information from a source in intelligence named B and his funding from the parents (Nasser Memarzia and Amira Ghazalla) of the bomb’s one true target.  Once she learns from Proctor that the bomber is a man named Reza (Tawfeek Barhom), she goes to confront him but fails, resulting in Proctor’s death and Stephanie having to locate the elusive B for help in finding and punishing all those responsible.  When she is able to find B, a ex-MI6 agent named Byron (Jude Law) living in alone in the desolate country side.  After agreeing to help her, Byron gets Stephanie clean and painfully trains her to fight and kill.  Unable to do more because he is no longer an agent, Byron has Stephanie pose as an international assassin to interact with ex-CIA information broker Mark Serra (Sterling K. Brown), who offers information in exchange for money and several killing contracts.  As Stephanie travels all across the globe following information from Serra and killing those connected with the plane bombing (including Richard Brake and Max Cassella), she finds herself battling with demons from her past and her desire to bring justice to those who have lived full lives after killing a plane full of innocent people, especially the unknown financier who ordered the bombing.

Based on the book of the same name, viewers watch a woman risk everything to bring both justice for her family and healing for herself.  Lively immerses herself in the role completely, transforming herself throughout the course of the beautifully, darkly shot film.   The Rhythm Section is nothing if not gritty, but it creates such a realistic world that the viewer is left captivated.
