The Middle Eastern oil industry is the backdrop of this tense drama, which weaves together numerous story lines. Bennett Holiday is an American lawyer in charge of facilitating a dubious merger of oil companies, while Bryan Woodman, a Switzerland-based energy analyst, experiences both personal tragedy and opportunity during a visit with Arabian royalty. Meanwhile, veteran CIA agent Bob Barnes uncovers an assassination plot with unsettling origins.

profanity
The F-word is used twenty-one times (thirteen of which are in very rapid succession in an extremely short jump-cut segment). The S-word is used four times. There are a few other vulgar words are said as well, like S.O.B. and a**hole, but a few more religious profanities (like: For Christ's sake)

There is no drug use in the movie. You do see some people drinking various alcoholic drinks. Cigarettes also turn up, but seldom.
frightening
Almost all of the scenes listed under "violence" are quite intense. (Some are extremely intense.) There is also an abduction that will make viewers jump.
