Plot

Danny has been raised by a London mobster, but this is no ordinary father-son relationship, Danny is kept in a cage, collared and allowed out only to reek violent havoc on all who stand in his uncle's' way. After escaping a gangland shooting, Danny is welcomed into the home of a kindly, blind piano tuner and begins to discover his humanity. 'Uncle' however is missing Danny and when the two meet again Danny must decide who his real family is. 'Unleashed' is an English language outing from Jet Li and sadly it's little improvement on what's gone before. The fight scenes of course are exemplary, surprisingly brutal and plentiful, but in comparison to his Chinese films it lacks a lot.
