Vanquish is a 2021 American action thriller film directed by George Gallo. It stars Morgan Freeman and Ruby Rose.
The film was released in the United States on April 16, 2021, by Lionsgate.[1]
Retired disabled cop Damon forces Victoria, a former drug courier and his caretaker, to collect bags of money around the city during a single night by holding her daughter Lily hostage. As the night progresses, Victoria finds out that at every stop point she makes, various enemies from her past attack her. Meanwhile, a cop breaks into Damon's home, but Damon kills him.
At her final stop, Victoria is captured and taken to the home of the corrupt Governor. The Governor asks for Victoria's help in taking down Damon, but Victoria refuses and kills the Governor instead.
Upon finally returning to Damon's home, Victoria is reunited with Lily. Then Damon explains that he had no need for the money that Victoria had collected; instead, this night was a part of his plan to eliminate all of Victoria's enemies along with the corrupt Governor, thus cleaning the city of crime and corruption.
As the dawn breaks, Damon lures all the corrupted cops that had been working for the Governor into his home, where he blows himself up along with them. Meanwhile, Victoria and Lily escape safely.
