In the high-stakes action thriller "Aftermath" (2024), director Patrick Lussier delivers a pulse-pounding narrative centered on former Army Ranger Eric Daniels, portrayed by Dylan Sprouse. Struggling with the lingering effects of PTSD, Eric seeks to reconnect with his teenage sister, Madeleine (Megan Stott). Their attempt at normalcy is violently disrupted when a heavily armed faction of ex-military revolutionaries seizes Boston's Tobin Memorial Bridge, taking all occupants hostage. The insurgents, led by the enigmatic Jimmy (Mason Gooding), execute a meticulously planned assault, severing the bridge and instigating widespread chaos. Amid the turmoil, Eric's combat instincts resurface as he endeavors to protect his sister and the other captives. Utilizing his elite training, he confronts the terrorists, aiming to dismantle their operation from within. As the siege intensifies, Eric uncovers the insurgents' true objective: the capture of Samantha "Doc" Brown (Dichen Lachman), a former U.S. Army Staff Sergeant whose past actions have made her a target. The film delves into themes of resilience, the psychological scars of warfare, and the moral complexities faced by those who serve.
