Sabotage (2014) is an action-thriller directed by David Ayer, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sam Worthington, Olivia Williams, and Mireille Enos. The film blends elements of crime, mystery, and intense action, set against the backdrop of a corrupt and deadly world of undercover drug operations.

The story follows John “Breacher” Wharton (played by Arnold Schwarzenegger), the leader of an elite DEA task force known for its high-risk, high-reward missions against dangerous drug cartels. After a successful but illegal heist during a raid on a cartel safe house, the team steals $10 million in cash, intending to keep it for themselves. However, their plan unravels when the money disappears, and members of the task force start getting killed one by one.

As the team is hunted down by an unknown assassin, Breacher and the DEA are left trying to figure out who is targeting them, while tensions within the group escalate. The investigation, led by Detective Caroline Brentwood (played by Olivia Williams), begins to reveal dark secrets about Breacher’s team, including betrayal, greed, and vengeance.

Sabotage is marked by its gritty and violent tone, characteristic of David Ayer’s directorial style. It features brutal action sequences, morally ambiguous characters, and a mystery that keeps the audience guessing until the end.

While the film received mixed reviews for its pacing and character development, it is praised for its intensity, Schwarzenegger’s commanding performance, and its darker, more brutal take on the action-thriller genre.
