Synopsis
The Bricklayer (2023) is an American action thriller directed by Renny Harlin that you can watch online on iFILM. Aaron Eckhart plays Steve Vail — a former CIA operative who walked away from the agency and took up actual bricklaying. Quiet life, no complications. That ends when someone starts killing foreign journalists and framing the CIA for each hit.
With global opinion turning against the U.S., the agency has no choice but to pull Vail back in. He's paired with a younger operative played by Nina Dobrev, sent to track down the man behind the operation — someone who knows CIA tradecraft from the inside. The film moves across multiple countries and doesn't slow down to over-explain itself.
Harlin — who previously directed Die Hard 2 and Cliffhanger — keeps it kinetic and unpretentious. The Bricklayer is a straight-line spy thriller: setup, chase, resolution. If you're after a no-frills action film for a Friday night, this delivers exactly what it promises. Stream The Bricklayer online on iFILM.
