The Guardians (2017) Hey what's up guys. Today I'll show
you an action-sci-fi film: "The Guardians"! Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care!
The movie begins at a Russian military testing site. The huge empty field is littered with
technology, under experimentation and heavy research by the military. They are currently
testing war machines that could easily eliminate single and multiple targets,
using a guided missile that could be controlled from within the command center. The observers
are amazed at the technology, when they are shown the military applications of the machines.
The officer in charge orders the tanks to attack the machines to show the observers
the effectiveness of the war machines against real threats. But suddenly,
the machines start to move on their own without the authorization of the command center. The war
machines quickly destroy the tanks, along with the helicopters that were soon deployed.
The machines start attacking the command center,
and are about to kill the observers when a large man appears in the field,
and takes control of the war machines for himself. He unleashes a wave of electricity that overrides
the system of the war machines. Later, the minister of defense holds
a top priority meeting that discusses the events of a secret Soviet Project,
called "Patriot". It is a genetic project that began in 1940 in many different Soviet labs, where
researchers conducted experiments on both animals and humans. The head technological researcher,
who's responsible for the technology department for the Patriot program, invented a device that
can control any vehicle from a distance. One of his colleagues, called Kuratov, became
obsessed with the invention; but the experiments failed and the department was shut down.
It is later revealed that Kuratov stole the research of the head researcher, and tried
to recreate the device by beginning a series of genetic research, that led to many innocent
people being hurt. Kuratov was imprisoned for the crime of transgresinya, but he managed to escape,
and went into hiding in a genetic lab. They tried to apprehend him, but he turned his lab
into a bomb, allowing him to escape once more. The explosion exposed his body to many chemicals,
which turned him into a super human with immense strength and enhanced hormones.
The minister of defense suggests that they enlist the help of Kuratov's
victims. He orders them to be found, and persuades them to help stop Kuratov.
In the evening, Kuratov enters another military facility, and opens the gates with his device.
He controls the trucks transporting a top-secret box containing military tech,
which he could use for his evil plans. Major Elena takes charge of the operation to
find and recruit the victims of Kuratov, and revive the Patriot program. She is given two
weeks to accomplish everything. She orders her information team to find any reports regarding
unusual activities. They discover one of Kuratov's victims, and deduce his hiding place.
Ler, the first of Kuratov's victims to be tracked, is currently at a chapel. After he prays,
he is approached by Major Elena, who asks him to be part of the patriot program. He reveals
his powers to her, which allows him to control the objects around him. He refuses to join the
program at first, but ultimately accepts the offer, when Major Elena tells him that he
could have his revenge on Kuratov. The next recruit is a man called Khan.
Many armed vehicles approach him in the middle of the wasteland. He starts cutting
down the guards with ease, using his increased speed and large blades. Ler approaches Khan,
and tells him that together they can get their revenge on Kuratov. Khan accepts the offer,
and becomes part of the team. In the middle of the jungle,
soldiers discover a cabin that belongs to a man called Arsus. A werebear attacks the soldiers,
and throws them out of the cabin. Arsus is greeted by Ler and Khan, who invite him to join the team
in hopes of defeating Kuratov. A theater performer called Kseniya,
shows off her powers during a live performance. She dives her sexy body into the water,
and later reappears after going invisible. The audience gives her a round of applause
as she slowly reappears, thinking it is a lighting trick used by the theater.
Khan greets her backstage, and they get into a fight. Ler and Arsus also appear, and they talk
her down. They have not seen each other for 40 years, and they ask Kseniya to join them,
so that they may know the truth behind who gave them their powers through the horrible
experiments that were done on them. On the other side, Kuratov returns to his
secret lair, where he observes the many cryogenic chambers around the room. He
remarks that his plan is nearly ready, and soon the creatures that are put to sleep within the
cryogenic chambers will soon be unleashed. Back in the Patriot Command Center, Kseniya tells
the team that she lost her memories at some point, and the doctors told her that she would gradually
regain them; but to this day, she has not. She knows her name only through the engraving on the
ring that she was wearing. Major Elena formally invites her to the team, and she accepts.
The minister of defense enters the Patriot Command Center, and tells the team that they
have discovered the location of Kuratov. The team starts their attack on the secret lair
of Kuratov. The rain is perfect for Kseniya, who utilizes water for her invisibility.
The team loses their signal with the command center, but continues their attack anyway.
They mow down many soldiers; but in their carelessness, they are easily captured by
the enemy, who utilizes their open powers against them. Ler remains the only one not
being captured, but Kuratov personally meets him, and proceeds to beat Ler.
Kuratov visits the rest of the team in their cell. Arsus pleads to Kuratov to let Kseniya go,
because she does not remember anything about Kuratov. Kuratov asks the team to join him;
but they refuse and tell him that death is better than joining up with him.
Kuratov mobilizes the stolen military vehicles, and uses them to lay waste to cities while on
his way to the capital. The population was evacuated safely, before Kuratov and his
machines could enter the capital. The minister of defense turns out to be working with Kuratov,
and he demands that Kuratov follow their prior agreement, once he brings the team
to Kuratov. But Kuratov kills the minister of defense, and uses the attack helicopters in
his control to bring down a large tower. Major Elena greets an injured Ler. He tells
her that he dreamed of his daughter and the life they lived, before Ler got his
powers. He reveals the pain he felt when everyone around him grew older and died,
while he stayed young with his immortality. Suddenly, the former head technological researcher
for the program, returns and offers his help to Major Elena. He reveals to them the location
of a secret laboratory, that Kuratov built and showed him in order to flaunt his success.
Major Elena leads a group of soldiers to release the team from their cells, and inform them about
the current situation around the country. Kuratov uses the attack helicopters at
his disposal, to transport the large tower into the heart of the city.
The team comes back to the Patriot Command Center to regroup. Major Elena sees Arsus on
the staircase, and asks why he is there. He tells her that he wants to have a talk with
the Technological Researcher, and ask him a few questions. She offers to call him,
but he declines and tells her that he will wait for him instead.
Arsus reveals to the Major that it's getting difficult to control his werebear form,
and he fears that one day he will lose control, and eventually forget how it is to be a human.
Major Elena comforts him using only her words, not muscles, and tells him that some animals are
better than most of humans on Earth. She promises to not let him turn into a hairy bear forever.
Kuratov meets the technological Researcher, and confronts him. He
remarks that the world will soon learn about his genius. He destroys the machinery around
the professor before leaving the laboratory. Kuratov relocates the tower into the heart of the
city, where he sets up a machine that allows him to control devices farther than normal. It turns
out, He wants to use the tower as a beacon for him to control a long-abandoned space station,
which used to be a cannon that could destroy Earth. He plans to use the station as a
massive communication satellite, to control all the devices on Earth.
Kuratov notices the fighter jets approaching his tower,
so he controls his war machines to shoot down the jets, before they can damage his tower.
Before the team enters the final battle against Kuratov, they are each given a suit,
that would help greatly enhance their capabilities in the coming fight. They make use of the time
they spend in the Patriot Command Center, to learn as much as they can about Kuratov, and plan out
their approach once they enter the city. During training, Ler struggles to use his new
weapon, but ultimately masters it in a few hours. Kseniya successfully defeats the highly trained
guards for her training, and Arsus creates a vial that helps him control his beast form,
which allows him to wield a gun during battle. The team plans to enter the city through the
subway, and make their way up the tower, so that they can destroy the beacon before
Kuratov takes control of the satellite. The team begins their attack on the city,
which starts off successfully. They fight against Kuratov's soldiers
in the streets of the city. Arsus manages to take down a war machine alone, while Ler uses
his new weapon to eliminate any threat down in the subway. Once Ler secures the elevator,
Arsus and Kseniya join him. Khan finds it hard to make it down from the plane. Ler and the others
attempt to cross to the tower, but are under heavy attack. Khan jumps down from the plane, and takes
down the soldiers attacking the team. Major Elena discovers the Technological
Researcher, who was poisoned by Kuratov in their last encounter. He tells her that the
team can win, because they are there to support each other in the mission.
Once the team enters the tower, they try to figure out a way to destroy the beacon.
Kseniya grabs the power source, and attempts to destroy it. but Arsus pulls her away before she
kills herself. The forcefield that surrounded the tower has now been destroyed, allowing military
aircraft to launch attacks on the tower. The team attacks Kuratov over control of the
tower. Arsus tries to fight Kuratov alone, but he's not a match to Kuratov, and gets knocked
unconscious. Kuratov takes control of a plane, and attaches the team to it and sends them away.
Khan cuts the rope, and they drop down to the river, and eventually wash up near the streets,
where Major Elena finds them and informs them about the status of the satellite.
Kuratov activates the satellite, but Ler uses his power to launch an attack on the tower, using the
combined strength of the team, which completely destroys the tower and the surrounding buildings,
causing Kuratov to fall to his gruesome death, and the satellite to deactivate.
After the battle, The government begins repairs on the city, and the people start coming back.
The team, along with Major Elena, looks over the city they saved in relief. She tells the team
that she learned a lot from them during their time spent together. They choose to return to
their normal lives after the mission; but Major Elena tells them that when the time
comes and the team is needed again, she hopes that they answer the call. The movie ends with
Major Elena telling the team that she has found other people with powers just like them.
