The Perfect Weapon is a 2016 American science fiction action film directed by Titus Paar and starring Steven Seagal.

When Condor (Johnny Messner), an elite assassin, fails to terminate his target, he finds himself on the run from the organization that employs him.

Condor is sent on a mission and fails due to his emotional instability and the Director has him go into a sleep state to fix him, but he escapes after learning he is going to be killed either way.

[2] The director said he "really liked the backbone of" the film "the totalitarian state and hitmen in a scif-fi world" but he "really didn’t like the script."

"[3] He says he "realized a serious film called The Perfect Weapon with Steven Seagal would never work or be taken seriously so it doesn’t take itself too seriously" and says he added the elements of rebellion towards the state and the complex love triangle with the female lead.
