.: Plot :.
Unleashed follows Danny, a Chinese man who was raised by "Uncle" Bart who trained him like an attack dog. Bart sent Danny after people who did not pay back their loans. He is trained so the moment his collar comes off he turns into a vicious fighter. Danny still has the mentality of a child, and is forced to live in squalor, naive and innocent of the real world.
Bart brings Danny to confront a jeweller who has not paid back his loan. The jeweller manages to beat Bart and his men before they can take Danny's collar off. Eventually Bart gets the collar off and Danny mercilessly beats the client and all of his guards. Bart berates Danny as a "useless piece of shit", wondering why Danny didn't come to his defense earlier even though he had his collar on.
Bart brings Danny to confront another gang of debtors where he sets up a device that will blink a red light, signaling Danny to come into the room. While waiting Danny starts playing with a piano and is greeted by a blind piano tuner, Sam. Danny is taken aback by Sam's warm and friendly nature but realizes he forgot about his duty and rushes to help Bart. Furious, Bart takes him back home throwing him into the cellar.
After seeing Danny at the jewellery store the owner of an underground cage fighting tournament wants him to enter. Bart brings Danny to the fight where Danny effortlessly kills his opponent. The owner invites Bart to come back the next month, but to make the fight more entertaining. On the ride back the car is suddenly hit by a truck of hit men sent by the jeweller. A wounded Danny crawls out of the wreckage and with no where else to go drags himself to the piano warehouse. Danny wakes up to find himself in the care of Sam and Victoria. He lives and grows with them while they teach him about the real world. After some time Sam tells Danny they are planning to return to New York and he should come with them. Before Danny can leave, Bart returns and captures Danny to use as a slave again.
Before the next tournament Danny questions Bart about his own mother but all Bart says is that he was abandoned. After spending time with Sam and Victoria, Danny does not want to hurt people anymore. Forced to fight, Danny simply dodges and blocks his opponent’s attacks until finally Bart ends it. For his disobedience Danny is beat and thrown in the cellar but finds a picture of who he believes is his mother. On the way to the next match Danny causes a car accident to escape again. Reunited with Sam they go to the Musical library to find more information about Danny's mother. Sam tunes the library's pianos in exchange for the information. Victoria finds the music Danny's mother played and she plays it for Danny helping him remember what actually happened to his mother.
Bart hires thugs and an assassin to bring Danny back, dead or alive. Danny tells Sam and Victoria to hide in the closet while he fights and wins. Enraged, Bart then goes up into the apartment to confront Danny himself. Bart tries to convince Danny that he can never have a normal life. Once Bart is defeated he attempts to get Danny to kill him but before Danny has a chance to decide Sam knocks Bart out with a flower pot.
Some time later, Danny, a completely normal-looking man, is with Sam at a piano recital, where Victoria is getting ready to perform. Realizing Victoria is playing what Danny's mother played years ago, the movie ends with a shot of Danny shedding a happy tear.

.: Резюме :.
Представете си, че от малък сте отгледан в среда, лишена от всякаква сетивност, че сте хранен и обличан от един човек. Представете си, че никога не сте се срещали с други деца, че никога не сте ходили на училище и че не знаете нищо друго освен това, на което този човек ви е научил. Представете си, че никога не сте получавали обич и грижовност освен тези, които този човек ви е давал. Представете си, че единственото нещо, което ви носи награда, е да причинявате невъобразима болка на други хора. Представете си всичко това и ще можете да си представите живота на Дани. Отделен от майка си в много ранна възраст, Дани не знае нищо за света освен това, което Барт му е показал. Той обитава клетка, намираща се под пода на офиса на Барт – човекът, който го е обучил да бъде машина за убиване. Човекът, който го притежава. Дани е смъртоносното оръжие на Барт. Човек, обучен като куче. Обучен да се подчинява на господаря си без да задава въпроси, независимо колко брутална може да е заповедта. До деня, в който Барт попада в засада на отмъстителен длъжник и е застрелян... Дани остава сам.
