Plot

Frank Vega, a decorated Vietnam hero, returns from the horrors of war only to be met with indifference by a society that once was his home. His high school sweetheart is gone, and the promise of a job evaporates like a forgotten dream. The hero's welcome he deserved is replaced by years of uncelebrated existence, his valor and sacrifices forgotten. Four decades later, chance thrusts Frank back into the limelight when, on a mundane city bus ride, he defends an elderly black man from two ruthless skinheads. This unanticipated act of bravery turns him into a local sensation overnight, his heroism finally recognized and celebrated. The grey fog of anonymity lifts, replaced by the warm glow of public adoration. However, this newfound glory is short-lived. The brutal murder of Klondike, his closest confidant, shatters Frank's peaceful existence. His pleas for justice fall on deaf ears as the police show a chilling lack of interest in solving the crime. Faced with the cold reality of his friend's unsolved murder and a system that fails him once more, Frank decides to take matters into his own hands. The local hero is compelled to channel the soldier he once was, embarking on a relentless quest for justice. 'Bad Ass' is a riveting tale of a forgotten hero's return to action, a thrilling ride that explores the depths of friendship, the fight for justice, and the courage it takes to stand up when the world looks the other way.
