Scott Adkins World 2017 - 2025
Section 8 centers on a former soldier and
now family man named Jake, who has a
run-in with some local gang members that
were giving his uncle Earl a hard time.
Jake gives the men a beat down, and as
revenge they kill his wife and son. In a fit
of rage, Jake tracks down and murders the
entire gang, to which he's sentenced to
prison for the rest of his life.
Enter Ramsey, who works for a secret ops
group known as “Section 8”. He makes Jake
an offer he literally cannot refuse. Because
even though Jake objects to joining the
group, Ramsey and his men snatch Jake
out of prison, taking him to their secret
base.
A big name on the movie poster is Dolph Lundgren. Lundgren’s character, Tom Mason, is Jake’s former
commanding officer and an ally who guides him through the mess. But Dolph has only a short screentime in
this film and doesn’t get any fight scenes.
About the short screentime…. that also counts for Scott Adkins. So, whats wrong with the filmmakers that we
feel that Scott is underused in this movie. Because he steals every scene and we don’t say that because this is
an Adkins fansite. Scott is a relentles hitman in this movie. Scott gives us all we want both in the martial arts
department as well as releasing a salvo of rounds from a machine gun. A particular highlight has him barging
through a casino and destroying anyone in his path. He kills cops in broad daylight.
And when we see him in fight scenes, we still see Boyka right in front of us. Look at his posture, the intense
gaze. Scott is still the beast, as the photos below from this fight scene clearly show. We are still absolute fans!
The following two missions Jake participates in make use of his special skills and is needed to take out select
targets. In the first mission, Jake succeeds. But he leaves behind witnesses, which is a big no in Section 8.
On the second mission, he manages to contain the target but hesitates to fire his weapon. Another member of
the team takes him out anyway. But his lack of action puts a mark on Jake's back.
And now he's on the run, not only from members of Section 8 but also from another killing machine named Locke
played by Scott Adkins. All told Jake discovers that he is at the center of something big, and shortly afterward,
details about Section 8's true nature and Jake's involvement are revealed.
He will never wake up again…
