This screenplay is a masterclass in establishing a protagonist through action rather than exposition, letting Xander Cage's extreme sports lifestyle and defiant attitude define him visually and viscerally. The first act also efficiently sets up a cat-and-mouse structure between the government and the nihilistic antagonist, promising escalating set pieces and a study in controlled chaos.
