|Casey Ryback, while on a train with his niece, Sarah, gets caught in the middle of another hijacking as the train is taken over by ex-military American mercenaries led by Marcus Penn. Their employer, Travis Dane, is a former weapons designer who uses the train as a mobile base to hack into his creation, the WMD satellite Grazer One, and use it to destroy Washington DC. Dane and Penn are revealed to have an extensive network of contacts with America's worst enemies, who pay them lots of money for their terrorist activities and Dane is especially amoral and depraved. He is willing to destroy a chemical weapons plant in Guanzhou, China, killing thousands, just to demonstrate the power of his weapon. He then uses it to destroy an entire passenger airplane just to kill a customer's ex-wife for extra money.
The film overall depicts Ryback's heroism in a positive light and the villains' treachery and depravity in a negative light like the first movie. It also has a pro-family theme demonstrated by Casey's relationship with Sarah as well as Casey's regret for not making amends with his brother before his brother's death. However, it's very derivative of the first film, and also has an anti-WMD message with Grazer One and Tom Breaker's line "Sane people do not build weapons like this."
