As Porter methodically takes down anyone standing in his way, he finds himself battling both the criminal underworld and corrupt cops in a relentless pursuit of payback. With its dark humor, brutal action, and a chilling antihero, Payback delivers a hard-hitting tale of vengeance and redemption.

After getting a green card in exchange for assassinating a Cuban government official, Tony Montana (Al Pacino) stakes a claim on the drug trade in Miami.
