Unfortunately, these accolades attract the attention of a gang of robbers that ransack his home.
While Rane manages to survive, albeit with a severed arm, his wife and children are ruthlessly killed.
One of the reasons thatThe Beekeeperwas so successful is that it implicates the audience within the revenge fantasy aspect.
The Beekeeperis a fairly straightforward action thriller, but it does slip in some surprising bits of political commentary.
Its evident that throughout the adventure, Rane is still in grief over the loss of his family.

Rolling Thunderis streaming on Prime Video in the United States.
