Q:Build a movie plot around this: What does Krieger find missing at the docks? Boat
A:
In a pine forest on a small island in British Columbia, Canada, (which is nothing like the tropical islands from the "Far Cry" video game), a group of armed mercenaries is savagely obliterated by an unknown foe. Evil mastermind Dr. Krieger observes the brutalities with obvious pleasure from CCTV cameras.We cut to Jack Carver, the German ex-special forces soldier turned boatman and the movie's protagonist, sipping from a beer can and driving his boat, while his passengers request him to show them whales in the Canadian lake.

She is a journalist and not an undercover C.I.A. agent, yet another deviation from the game's storyline. we understand that her Uncle Max works there, though it is not specified what work exactly he's doing, and that he has been feeding her information. We'd previously seen Max agreeing with Parker about how bad it is to use men as test subjects.Val hires Jack Carver to take her to the island, because her uncle Max has set a meeting up. Turns out that Uncle Max and Jack have served together in the army and have known each other for a long time. However, Uncle Max is captured by the evil mercenaries while trying to send Val an e-mail with more information, and is put to the same surgical "genetic" enhancements that the...
