Danny (Li) is mobster Bart's (Hoskins) enforcer/dog. He is treated like a pet and has been trained to be docile and subservient until his collar is taken off. At that point he unstoppable, beating enemies into a bloody pulp. One day, fate steps in, and Danny finds himself a free man.
Sam (Freeman), a blind piano tuner and his step-daughter Victoria (Condon) take him in and become his friends. Together they give him everything he never had, most notibly, a family. They re-train him to live a normal life. Unfortunately, Danny's past is not yet behind him, and when his past and present meet, anything could happen.

Hoskins and Freeman are standouts in this film. Hoskins steals every scene he is in as the genuinely evil Bart. He plays the part with a delicious glee. Freeman is equally good as the reserved Sam. He is immensely likeable and completely believeable as the piano tuner who gives Danny a real life. Li provides first rate action sequences that are no holds barred pummelling.

Action lovers will definately enjoy "Unleashed". Oddly enough, I think that piano lovers will as well. Either way, "Unleashed" is an entertaining film.
