Act of Valor


The story begins with a brief narrative by Chief Dave explaining about heroism and brotherhood along with a video of SEAL Team 7 performing a practice HALO parachute jump.
In the Philippines, an ice cream truck drives through the streets to a school where the American ambassador arrives to pick up his kid. The ambassador and his son approach the ice cream truck where it immediately explodes due to suicide bombing.
At the same time, in South America, two CIA Agents Walter Ross (Nestor Serrano) and Morales (Roselyn Sánchez), who are suspicious about the suicide bombing that killed the ambassador, are suddenly ambushed in their apartment by three of Christo’s thugs. Ross was killed while Morales was abducted. Morales was taken to a compound in the jungle where the torturer is speaking on a cell phone with Christo.
Back state-side, two Navy SEALs, Lieutenant Rorke and Chief Dave are at a bar. Rorke explains that his wife is pregnant and Dave is proud for him, saying he’ll be a good dad. Lt. Rorke and Chief Dave hang out at the beach with their families and their other SEAL members; Weimy, their sniper, Ray, the communications specialist, Sonny, their EOD operator, Ajay, a former Muy Thai fighter, Mikey, a 20-year-veteran, and Senior Chief Miller. Soon, the Navy SEALs get word of Morales’ kidnapping. The Navy believes Morales was captured because she was working on a possible link between two terrorists named Christo (Alex Veadov) and Abu Shabal (Jason Cottle).
The seven Navy SEALs make a HALO jump to Morales’ position while the SWCC’s set up their crafts along the river and sending up a UAV where they spot a possible enemy QRF in the area. The SEALs quietly make their way to the compound where they can hear Morales being tortured, so they decide to act fast. Lt. Rorke and Weimy stay outside where they snipe all the terrorists outside while the other five enter the building. There, one of the SEALs, Mikey, gets shot in the face but the rest are able to find and rescue Morales, along with recovering the cell phone. The enemy QRF are suddenly spotted arriving so the SEALs pile into an enemy truck where they drive out of the compound, pick up Rorke and Weimy, and speed to the river where they are met by the SWCCs. The SWCCs recover the SEALs, kill most of the enemy QRF, and escape.
In Ukraine, Abu Shabal goes to meet a contact who is making explosive vests. They explain that they’re lightweight, concealable, and use 500 ceramic ball bearings that cannot be picked up by metal detectors. The plan is for a group of suicide bombers to use these vests on key U.S. cities; this will cause a U.S. economic collapse and anarchy.
Later, Christo and Shabal meet. Christo explains that the CIA is looking at him and he has to go underground. Shabal is enraged, saying he has trained people for a year and now he is now bailing. Christo says that is not true; he is keeping his word but he will not be directly involved per se. Shabal will have to use Christo's associates. Shabal is less than convinced and still thinks Christo is going back on their plans.
On the U.S. coast, Senior Chief Miller explains to Lt. Rorke and Chief Dave that Mikey is fine but will lose the eye. In addition, the cell phone they recovered explains the Shabal/Christo link; Cristo is a smuggler and Shabal is a bomber, they plan on smuggling suicide bombers throughout the United States. Before that, they learn of a possible meeting to take place in Somalia. Senior Chief Miller sends Ajay and Ray to Somalia to recon and stake-out the meeting while the rest wait in Mexico for a possible strike.
In Somalia, Ajay and Ray spy on the meeting between Shabal and his suicide bombers, where they learn of underground tunnels from Mexico to the United States. The two SEALs finish their recon and leave.
Meanwhile, out in the sea, Christo is aboard a yacht, with escort gunboats, throwing a party. Suddenly, the SWCC’s arrive and destroy the gunboats and a SEAL squad boards the yacht and captures Christo. Once secured, Senior Chief Miller boards the yacht and interrogates Christo. Christo explains about the ball-bearings explosive vests and that they’ll bomb several key cities.
With intel collected, they find a village on the Mexican coast where most of the suicide bombers are being housed. Lt. Rorke, Chief Dave, and many other SEALs make an amphibious landing at night and approach the village. During the raid, they manage to kill most of the bombers in a fire fight and re-take the village. However, they learn that Shabal wasn’t there and that he took many of the bombers with him to a milk factory.
The U.S. Marines relieve the SEALs at the village at sunrise. The SEALs leave the village where they link-up with the Mexican Special Forces who take them to the milk factory in the city.
The milk factory and the surrounding area are guarded by the drug cartel, but the SEALS and Mexican SOF manage to sneak in, via dump trucks, to the milk factory. In the factory, the SEALs make their way through killing most of the bombers. Along the way, Lt. Rorke sees a grenade drop to the ground, so he sacrifices himself by jumping on it, killing him. Chief Dave continues on and manages to kill the rest of the bombers and Shabal while being seriously wounded in the process.
At home, Lt. Rorke is buried while Dave survived his multiple gunshots. The film ends with the list of U.S. Navy SEALs who were killed in action since 9/11 and that the film was dedicated to them.
