Dark Angel

In the year 2019 the U.S. has become a third world country in the wake of the Pulse - an electromagnetic shockwave unleashed by nuclear terrorists in 2009. This is Max's world, an unforgiving place even for a genetically engineered soldier like her. On the run from her creators and constantly in search of her past, Max joins forces with the idealistic cyberjournalist "Eyes Only." She's a revved-up girl trying to make a run-down world a better place.

Dark Angel stars Jessica Alba as Max, a genetically-enhanced human prototype with attitude to spare. As a child, Max escaped from her military creators and made a life for herself on the edgy streets of 21st-century Seattle. She became a reluctant hero when she teamed up with idealistic, underground cyber-journalist Logan Cale (Michael Weatherly), lending her unique abilities to his crusade against corruption and an oppressive establishment. In exchange, Logan offered his help in locating her "siblings," who escaped with Max but have scattered in theaftermath. Max's desperate search to find the others like her would ultimately lead her to return to Manticore, the nefarious government laboratory that spawned her.

Scared and alone, Max is now once again a prisoner in the facility she fled a decade before. Her friends believe she is dead and Manticore is using any means necessary to re-indoctrinate her. It seems like there is no way out this time. But Max has a plan… and it's going to blow Manticore wide open.
