Synopsis

The Foreigner (2017) is an action crime thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Martin Campbell directs, with Jackie Chan and Pierce Brosnan headlining.

Quan runs a quiet Chinese restaurant in London. When his teenage daughter is killed by a bomb claimed by a breakaway faction of the IRA, the police stall and the politicians hedge. So the grieving father — a man whose buried wartime past comes roaring back — starts hunting the killers himself. His target is government official Liam Hennessy (Brosnan), a former militant who clearly knows more than he admits. From there it turns into a tense game of cat and mouse: homemade explosives, surveillance, pressure squeezing both men. Campbell, who made Casino Royale, stages the action lean and mean, while Chan trades stunts for the raw weight of a man wrecked by loss. Stream The Foreigner (2017) online on iFILM.
