Really a 4.5… this logline says all it needs to say so it's good, but it's just a tad too long, not snappy enough at 43 words.

My revision of 36 words:

"After a nihilistic band of former mercenaries unleashes a wave of terror attacks on critical world infrastructure, the leader of a spec ops team must neutralize them before they're able to perpetrate their most destructive plot."

…or 27 words:

"The troubled leader of a spec ops team must neutralize a nihilistic band of former mercenaries turned terrorists before they're able to unleash their most destructive plot."

Michael Dzurak Thanks, like with my scripts verbosity in loglines is still something I struggle with!
