When sad-sack loser Frank (Rainn Wilson, THE OFFICE), a short-order cook, sees his ex-addict wife (Liv Tyler, THE LORD OF THE RINGS) willingly snatched away by a seductive drug dealer (Kevin Bacon), he finds himself bereft and unable to cope. But he decides to fight back under the guise of a do-it-yourself superhero called Crimson Bolt. With a red hand-made suit, a wrench, a crazed sidekick named Boltie (Ellen Page, JUNO) - and absolutely nothing in the way of superpowers - Crimson Bolt beats his way through the mean streets of crime in hopes of saving his wife.
