A boy always believed his dad was just a regular guy with a boring job. But one day, he stumbles upon a hidden room, cool gadgets, and shocking clues. That’s when he discovers the truth, his dad is actually a secret agent!

‘SPOILER ALERT’

Finding himself in the desert, a secret agent named Anacleto, approaches a prison in the middle of nowhere. He gets asked for his code name, and the moment he gives it, the guard forces him to put out his cigarette.

As it turns out, Anacleto put most of the criminals there, so they keep howling curses at him. He just keeps walking until he arrives at a particular cell belonging to his arch enemy.

The warden gives him some privacy, and Anacleto graciously gets himself locked inside the cell with the infamous Vazquez, a world class criminal he put away thirty years ago. Apparently, Vazquez has been dreaming about the day he’ll get his vengeance on Anacleto, as proven by the graphic sketches surrounding his cell.

Well, bad news is that Anacleto has come by to transfer him to a much smaller and dirtier prison to spend the remaining 20 years of his sentence. They get into a transport vehicle soon enough, with Anacleto riding in the back with the infamous criminal. He brings up his son, Adolfo, taunting his captor with hidden threats on the boy’s life.

Angry, Anacleto grabs his onesie and begins to yell warnings at him. Unfortunately, this doesn’t last. Two more criminals known only as the butcher and the molecule choose this very moment to blow up the transport vehicle with a bazooka. Don’t worry, nobody dies. The car only tumbles a couple of times, and afterwards, the butcher and the molecule pop open the back.

Vazquez tells Anacleto that he plans to kill him and his son, and the angry agent tries to get him back in vain. Anyway, he gets knocked out cold in no time and left in the back of the vehicle.

Two guards, Martin and Anacleto’s son, Adolfo, get distracted on night duty, smoking and drinking instead of keeping tabs on the camera at their electronics store. Worse off, they let some intruders get away with thousands of dollars worth of electronics just because they’re too lazy to do anything about it.

Katia, Adolfo’s girlfriend and Martin’s sister, picks him up the next morning, but he’s hung over the entire time. She talks about a lot of things, shrugging and having this annoyed look on her face. Sadly, Adolfo doesn’t pick up on the signs, so she parks the car all of a sudden. Katia goes on to give him the “it’s not me, it’s you” talk, bringing up how he’s a couch potato who’ll never travel the world or amount to anything.

Adolfo realizes that he’s in the process of getting dumped and that hangover he had kinda clears out immediately. Unfortunately, he still gets dumped in the middle of nowhere.

The only thing he can think to do is call up his old man, but Anacleto barely gets his hands on the phone before some strange men show up with guns. Big guns. They shoot the phone to high heaven and then threaten the great Anacleto. Of course, he shows no fear and then mouths off until he annoys one of them.

He tackles him easily, retrieves his gun, and shoots his counterpart in the shoulder. Afterwards, he nabs their car and reaches out to his boss, known only as Jefe, informing him that someone leaked the Vazquez transport route.

Jefe throws a fit as he tries to source a solution, forgetting that his agency lacks the funding to get anything done. His secretary reminds him though, leaving him no choice but to send two agents to protect Adolfo on his father’s request.

That night, Adolfo goes to a club to drink his sorrows away and Martin shows up to cheer up his friend. Too bad that the cause of his problem also shows up at the club, looking happier than ever. Martin walks to his sister to give her a piece of his mind, but they end up fighting in the middle of the club. Katia quickly gains the upper hand though, even getting rid of a guard while she’s at it.

She and Adolfo make a run for it and the exhilaration from the chase helps them make up. They even head home together and the two agents sent by Jefe pull up outside. They’re still talking about past glories when they both get shot in the head. Disrespectfully.

Adolfo gets dumped for the second time that night, and since he has nowhere else to go, he stays on the undersized couch, crying his eyes out like a little girl who got her barbie swiped. This stops when he hears the door open, but his feeble attempt to cover himself fails when the intruder, an assassin from Vazquez, finds him out.

Poor Adolfo thinks he’s getting robbed until the assassin tries to knock him out with some nunchucks. He gets slammed into the table, the wall, and later on, through the bathroom door, only defending himself the best he can. The assassin wraps a towel around his neck, trying to strangle Adolfo, but it doesn’t take.

In no time, he breaks free, struggles with the assassin, and then slams his head through a glass window nearby, leaving him to bleed to death.

Tired and confused, he tries to tell Katia what happened, but she’s too deep in sleep to even mind him. All of a sudden, someone smacks Adolfo on the head with a gun and he drops to the ground like a bag of rocks.

Come daybreak, Katia is the first to wake up and she’s shocked by the injuries on Adolfo’s face. He tries explaining that he fought a Chinese guy the night before but all evidence of the fight – the broken table and even the bleeding assassin – have been cleaned up. Katia thinks he self-harmed to get her attention, so she dumps him for the third time, forcing him to pack his bags and head out. Dude can’t catch a break.

Luckily, Anacleto is right outside. He pretends to be on a deli delivery and his son buys it. They talk about why he’s leaving, or at least they try to, but Adolfo is too ashamed to admit it. Anacleto then offers to get him home and cook him something nice. Having no other option, Adolfo agrees, leaving his dad to pack his bags in the back alongside the corpse of the Chinese assassin.

The ride home is mostly noisy, with Adolfo spilling his guts about his relationship. This stops when his dad mocks him, and the poor dude decides to sleep through the rest of the ride. Upon their arrival, Adolfo wastes no time going up to his former room where he almost calls Katia, but quits at the last minute to read his diary.

Anacleto is busy moving the Chinese assassin’s body when a call comes from his boss, telling him to sit tight. Almost immediately, he notices someone in a tree nearby and throws a hammer in that direction. A hulk of a man falls out of the tree and a fight breaks out involving farm tools and only a cow as their witness.

Some shears come into play as he tries to cut Anacleto’s head off, but he’s quite nimble for his age so he escapes and makes a beeline for the cow. His opponent grabs an ax nearby, but before he can use it, Anacleto pulls out a gun from inside the cow and opens fire. Somehow this goon blocks all the bullets and throws the ax at Anacleto.

It becomes a fist fight soon enough and they take it into the den where Adolfo is busy playing video games. He only notices the noise after the knockout in the game, but when he approaches his dad, he pretends like he only dropped a pot, pinning the assassin’s mouth close with his foot.

Adolfo only leaves for a split second and by the time he returns, meets his dad shoving a man into a meat grinder. He’s shocked but doesn’t freak out immediately. Instead, he gives his old man a chance to explain and finds out that he’s a secret agent working for a company named GP.

While he’s accusing his dad of being a psychopath, more assassins close up on their house.

They open fire on the house, leaving Anacleto and his son to seek cover behind the kitchen table. The moment the bullets pause, Anacleto unveils his gun stash, pulling out two handguns and a pack of gum he claims have explosive power.

He gives a gun to his son and then reveals that he has been training Adolfo to fight his whole life; from the time he hung the poor boy upside down and shot golf balls at him, to how he made him struggle to get a single pringle from his grasp.

Anyway, Adolfo is certain that his dad is sick in the head but doesn’t have time to dwell on it because of all the bullets that come flying in. The first assassin through the door gets shot in the head, and the second, gets a trap set for him with Anacleto’s exploding bubble gum. Patented. They eventually don’t need it because Adolfo opens fire on yet another intruder who spirals and shoots his own kin.

Afterwards, they argue some more and then Anacleto calls for his dog, Sapriti. Sadly, Sapriti steps on the bubble gum, blowing up himself and the entire kitchen as Anacleto watches in horror. Adolfo threatens to go to the cops so his dad gags him with his own tie and sticks him in the car. There, he discovers that his mom was also a spy and that Anacleto has killed north of five hundred people.

As for Vazquez, he’s busy playing bingo when Anacleto’s boss shows up. It turns out that he was the one who gave up his agent’s location, all in exchange for some money. Given that Vazquez is reluctant to hand over the briefcase, the GP boss threatens to shoot his leg off.

Unfortunately, the briefcase is filled with worthless stamps Vazquez’s guys invested in when he was in prison. Angry, Jefe promises to make his life miserable if he doesn’t get his money. He grabs a few euros and bolts after this.

On the other side of town, Anacleto and his son arrive at the post office/ GP headquarters. Apparently, funding is a real issue for them so they had to share the space. They head to the mail boxes in the back where Anacleto inputs his password to reveal a secret elevator. Soon enough, they arrive at the main quarters but it seems way too deserted.

As they proceed, Anacleto realizes that the door to the inner room is blocked by something, so he pushes and pushes until the body of a pencil pusher falls to the ground. A sense of caution washes over him so he peels out his gun as he and his son scan the area. They soon realize that every single agent present was killed, some with poison, others through unknown means. There’s this place where any agent left alive is supposed to meet and Anacleto plans to go there as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, he’s met by more of Vazquez’s men the moment they step out of the elevator. He quickly pushes his son back into it and slides over to kick the heck out of the closest assassin. In the blink of an eye, it becomes a shootout and Anacleto gets shot in the gut.

It takes everything in him to make it back to the elevator safely.

There, he puts a call through to Vazquez, making it clear that he won’t rest until he gets revenge for his fallen friends. They soon make their way down the stairs and continue to do so until they burst out through the side entrance. With nowhere else to go, Anacleto suggests that they jump from a couple of stories.

At first, Adolfo forbids it, so his dad jumps like it’s nothing to show him how it’s done, slamming into a truck, and then a car, and then the ground. Adolfo still doesn’t make the jump until their pursuers burst through the door, landing on his feet much better than his dad did. Anyway, Anacleto’s gunshot wound seems to be getting worse but he makes it explicitly clear that he doesn’t want to go to the hospital.

This leaves Adolfo no choice but to track down Katia, who, by the way, is having a beautiful chicken dinner with her twisted family. The interruption doesn’t go as planned, seeing as she freaks out the moment she sees a bleeding Anacleto at her doorstep. Adolfo gives her the short version of things, and together, they hurl his dad into Katia’s bedroom.

She tries her best to patch him up but Anacleto won’t stop bleeding. The more effort she puts in, the more he screams, sending the wrong message to her parents who know nothing about his presence. Soon enough, Martin comes to the door and mouths off in an attempt to save his friend from going back to his sister. To stop all this nonsense, Katia pulls him into the room and they explain everything to him.

Mere moments later, Anacleto’s cell rings and Martin crushes it to dust, paranoid out of his mind and sure that the phone will be traced. Much later that night, Anacleto gets up for a smoke and Katia joins him, using the chance to scold him for making his son so boring.

On the other hand, Vazquez is pissed that no one on his crew is even competent enough to compile a cabinet. He snatches the manual and the key from the butcher and tries to do it himself. Obviously, he has no idea how to proceed but a phone call comes just in time to save him the ridicule. Unfortunately, it’s news about Anacleto’s location, so he orders both goons to go after him immediately. Stupid beyond saving, they ask if they should compile the cabinet before leaving.

Meanwhile, Adolfo wakes up the next morning to see Katia’s bed empty. He wakes her and Martin up in a frenzy, and together, they go searching for his father. Eventually, they find him sitting at the dining table with both of Katia’s parents, having made them breakfast but fed them lies. He hands some fresh juice to everyone present, waits for them to take a sip each, and then reveals that he spiked the juice with truth serum.

With this, he questions each of them about their affiliations, but it turns into something else as Katia and Adolfo make it a therapy session for their relationship. Martin is the last to get questioned and he admits to running over an old lady. He thinks he killed her but his dad confesses that he’s responsible. Apparently, he had gone to her place to settle things but pushed her out the window instead. Ridiculously, the old lady had survived the fall and ended up at Katia’s hospital, so she increased the morphine dose to put the last nail in her coffin.

As the three of them bond over this twisted event, their mom casually reveals that she has been feeding Vazquez info for two years now. Worse off, she already told him about Anacleto being at her place.

In no time, they hear a vehicle screeching to a halt in front of the house and quickly make a run for it. The butcher and the molecule make their way up the stairs, burst down the door, and question Katia’s parents about Anacleto’s location. High on truth serum, her father spills everything from how many bullets they have, to the fact that they have no back up. After this, both goons waste no time chasing after them and firing bullets from above.

Anacleto tries to shoot back, taking the chance to warn his son and the others to be safe. He then instructs him to meet at the north station at 2pm.

The race against time begins as all three make their way through the street, oblivious to the goon Vazquez had planted up front. In turn, the goon informs the others, calling them to come out immediately.

As Adolfo and the others continue to run, Martin realizes that he’s too unathletic to keep up, so he stops running altogether. Luckily, he’s not the one they’re after. After a few minutes of chasing and running, Adolfo finds himself surrounded by about 6 goons, so he encourages Katia to make a run for it while he takes care of things.

At the same time, a chef crosses his path with a cart of canned goods and Adolfo pays for the entire cart. Using the cans as weapons, he begins to throw them at his opponents, hitting some of them in their necks and others in places I’m not at liberty to mention. Sadly, it doesn’t keep them down for long.

They get back up and begin to surround him again, leaving him no choice but to retire to his base training. Screaming a war cry, Adolfo begins to block multiple attacks at once, dishing out attacks of his own every chance he gets. After a while, he gets a hang of things and bones begin to break. Too bad that he gets tazed before he can finish anyone off.

It’s at this point that Vazquez shows up with a captured Katia, watching as Adolfo loses consciousness.

Meanwhile, Anacleto gets a chance to come up for air, only to run into Martin up front. They talk but Martin has no idea where the others went, so they conclude that they must’ve gone to the rendezvous.

Later on, Adolfo regains consciousness at Vazquez’s lair, tied back to back with his ex. He tries to talk his way out of harm by claiming that hurting him won’t hurt his cold and heartless father, but Katia and Vazquez see this as cowardice. He then goes straight to asking about Anacleto’s location, threatening to cut off his tongue if he doesn’t tell him.

Adolfo actually considers selling out his father and this gets Katia really mad. She begins to scream at him, claiming that he runs away when things are hard. The way Adolfo sees it, he’ll break under torture, so why go through it in the first place?

The argument gets worse as their voices go up by octaves, irritating Vazquez in the process. The mobster stabs Katia in the eye to shut them up, and it works like a charm. The only downside is that Katia faints, not because she was stabbed, but because she realizes that she may go blind because of it.

Afterwards, Vazquez gets into Adolfo’s face, threatening to pull out Katia’s other eye if he doesn’t tell him where to find Anacleto. Almost immediately, Adolfo tells him everything about the north station and how they’re supposed to meet there.

Anacleto and Martin arrive at the ever busy north station and the latter can’t stop comparing real life to spy movies. Anacleto tries to reach his locker at the station but Martin concludes that it’s his secret stash for guns and passports. You can imagine his disappointment when he discovers that the locker only contains a change of clothes.

After changing, they stroll down a secluded railway where they run into a disguised agent named Gimeno. Looking like a homeless man, he begs them for a measly one euro, but Anacleto vouches for Martin. Only then does Gimeno reveal himself to also be an agent. They talk for a moment before Jefe comes through and Anacleto runs to his side, admitting that he thought he was dead.

In turn, the boss assures him that all is well, adding that he has Adolfo in a safe place. He approaches Gimeno after this, but Anacleto pulls a gun on him, informing everyone present that the boss has been in cahoots with Vazquez from the start. Jefe tries to paint Anacleto as the enemy in Gimeno’s eyes, leaving the poor agent confused as to who to point his gun at.

In solidarity, Anacleto offers his boss a deal – tell him everything he knows about Vazquez and he’ll do all the killing. His boss still seems reluctant, so he shoots the man’s hand, not caring about Gimeno. It turns out that he swiped the cartridge out of Gimeno’s gun when they hugged earlier on, so he calmly returns it as he makes his way to his boss’s side once again.

Squatting beside him, Anacleto wonders why Jefe would get in bed with the devil and he reveals everything. You see, GP was going to be dissolved, and the boss needed a way to keep them relevant. He thought that letting Vazquez roam the streets would leave the government no choice but to keep them in business. A stupid plan, but one he thought would be effective.

He leaves the boss in Gimeno’s care and opens a secret compartment where multiple guns were hidden. Excited, Martin grabs a beretta and pretends to be Bruce Willis. I’ve not seen all of his movies but I’m certain he didn’t shoot himself in the foot. Well, Martin did.

Hearing a scream from the main hall, he and Anacleto make their way back. They meet the station getting evacuated and Katia and Adolfo with bombs strapped to their chests in a conjoined vest. Then, a little kid drops by to hand Anacleto a phone.

Vazquez happens to be on the other side of the line and he admits that the bomb, consisting of Liquid plutonium and goma-2, will explode in one hour. He brags about how it’ll take out everything in a 500 meter radius, adding that it’s synced to Adolfo’s heart. This way, Anacleto will have to kill his son to deactivate it.

They move to a more secure location within minutes and Anacleto calls in the bomb squad.  Sadly, they don’t see any other way to deactivate it, so they push Martin out, leaving Anacleto alone with Adolfo and Katia.

He and his son have a heart to heart where Adolfo points out that neither James Bond nor Jason Bourne ever had kids for a reason. He really lets his Anacleto have it, but his old man rebuttals with a beautiful anecdote about how he’s been scared only twice in his life. The first was when Adolfo was four and he got a life threatening allergic reaction to a peanut. The second is right now, another life threatening experience.

While they bask in this bittersweet moment, Anacleto has an epiphany. He rushes to the control room where Martin and the others are watching, asking them to help him out.

At this point, Adolfo has only four minutes left, so his dad does everything possible to get a bag of peanuts and some antihistamine. With less than two minutes left, he hands over the bag of chips to Aldofo and explains how the plan will work. A frantic Katia reminds him that there’s no other option, so Adolfo gulps down peanuts like a starving elephant.

In mere seconds, his face begins to swell, followed by his throat, and then his hands. Sure that he’ll die, he makes his father promise to cremate his body but Anacleto refuses to leave that to chance.

Luckily, or unluckily, Adolfo’s heart gives out with fifty seven seconds left on the clock, and immediately this happens, Anacleto alerts Katia. He injects the antihistamine into his son’s neck while she takes off the strap and helps him lay Adolfo on the ground.

They try everything from CPR to heart massages, worry evident on Anacleto’s face at the thought of losing his only child. He’s so engrossed in bringing him back to life that he slams his balled fist on the poor boy’s chest like he’s banging on a door. He has no idea about Adolfo already breathing until he yells that his dad is going to break his ribs. Although he’s too tough to show it, Anacleto is nothing if not relieved to see him alive.

Adolfo, Katia, and Martin hold hands in kumbaya, but Anacleto can’t rest until his arch enemy, the evil Vazquez, is taken down. It’s at this point that they realize Vazquez never really left, he was disguised as a member of the bomb squad this whole time.

Anacleto arms himself and runs after his opponent, and his son opts to follow him. Katia then bids him goodbye, much to her brother’s disdain.

He comes in contact with his dad soon enough, and gets handed two machine guns. They stealthily approach the parking lot where they see Vazquez chatting up the butcher and the molecule. Adolfo mindlessly opens fire on them, screaming like Arnold Schwarzenegger in the terminator. Unfortunately, not a single bullet meets any of the targets.

The goons return fire after this, so they hide behind separate cars. Anacleto hands his son another gun with which he shoots the molecule like an expert marksman. After this, they go back to hiding from the butcher. Adolfo suggests that they obtain a getaway car and his dad runs over to where the keys are kept.

For some reason, he grabs a bunch of them, hiding beneath a nearby table as the butcher approaches. He then unlocks multiple vehicles at once, sending him on a wild goose chase.

This doesn’t work for long.

As he tries to link up with Adolfo, the butcher catches him midstep and opens fire. Anacleto runs like his life depends on it but still gets shot in the leg. His son then helps him to a car but it comes up that he can’t drive.

Adolfo refuses to let Anacleto do it anyway, so he gets into the driver’s seat and drives in the wrong direction.

The butcher catches a glimpse of their car and sprays it with as many bullets as the gun allows. Desperate, Adolfo reverses the vehicle until they crush the butcher against the wall of the parking lot.

Vazquez then shows up with a car of his own, raging with full speed in their direction. Adolfo tries to escape, but his seat belt gets stuck, leaving his dad no choice but to shoot the belt free. Without thinking, Anacleto dives into the vehicle just to push his son to safety. Vazquez then crashes into the car with him in it.

Afterwards, Adolfo manages  to pull his dad out of the wreckage and encourages him that everything will be okay. His eyes heavy with regret, he just cradles his father on his lap as he goes pale with a piece of car iron sticking out of his stomach.

In his last moments, Anacleto admits that everything he did was to try and make his son stronger. He even says he’s proud of him and apologizes for any way he failed his son. He heaves his last breath after this and his eyes become lifeless.

Silence fills the parking lot as Adolfo struggles to still himself, and after taking a moment, he retrieves the gun from his father’s cold grip, determined to finish what he started.

He goes in search of Vazquez immediately, but the mobster had already escaped the car. This doesn’t stop him from tracking him down, but he shoots an empty cabinet in a hurry.

Vazquez then shows himself, trying to hold Adolfo at gunpoint. Little did he know that it was all a set up. Adolfo had stolen one of his dad’s bubble gum bombs, and at this moment, Vazquez has his foot on top of it, ready to share the same fate as Sapriti.

Adolfo runs like the wind, and before Vazquez can finish hurling curses at him, the whole place goes up in flames, smoke shooting out of every crevice. Sitting alone in a crumbling hallway, Adolfo bids his father’s arch enemy good riddance.

Later on, they hold a three man funeral for Anacleto in his front yard. There, they say a few words in remembrance.

The boys then ride with Katia and it turns out that she now wants a boring man, a man that Aldofo doesn’t want to be anymore. For this reason, she breaks up with him for the fourth time.

Martin tries to complain but it only leads to Katia kicking both of them out in the middle of nowhere.

Standing by the road, Adolfo gets a crazy idea to become a secret agent, so he and Martin team up to live dangerously.

After everything that has happened to Adolfo, from being downright boring to losing his father in the heat of battle, he decides to lead an exciting life, the same life his father led. Do you believe everyone is bound to become like their parents?
