Hired by a powerful member of the Russian mafia to avenge an FBI sting that left his brother dead, a psychopathic hitman known only as The Jackal proves an elusive target for the people charged with the task of bringing him down: a deputy FBI director, a Russian MVK Major, and a jailed IRA terrorist who can recognize him.

Editor's Verdict

❌NO

"Despite being released during the holiday season (a common marketing strategy), *The Jackal* is a pure action/thriller with no meaningful connection to Christmas in its setting, plot, themes, or resolution. The single noted 'Christmas Element' is a release date, not a narrative component."
