In Rules of Engagement, Colonel Terry Childers (played by Samuel L. Jackson), a highly decorated war hero, is recruited for a highly dangerous rescue mission in Yemen. The mission aims to protect the American ambassador and civilians from a violent mob attack. However, the operation quickly turns chaotic when the crowd becomes aggressive and starts firing on the American forces.

Amidst the chaos, Childers makes a difficult decision to retake control of the situation and orders his men to open fire, resulting in the death of many Yemeni civilians. This act of seemingly excessive force sparks international outrage and leads to Childers being court-martialed for violating the Rules of Engagement.

Facing the possibility of a life sentence, Childers requests the assistance of his longtime friend and former Marine, Colonel Hayes Hodges (played by Tommy Lee Jones), who is now a lawyer. Although hesitant at first, Hodges agrees to defend Childers and quickly realizes the complexity of the case and the challenges they will face.

As the trial unfolds, shocking evidence and testimonies come to light, revealing a deeper conspiracy involving political motives to protect American interests in the region. Hodges tirelessly works to unravel the truth and prove Childers' innocence, despite the mounting pressure from a hostile courtroom and media.

The courtroom drama intensifies as Hodges battles with a tenacious prosecutor, Major Biggs (played by Guy Pearce), who seems determined to make Childers a scapegoat for the government's actions. Throughout the trial, Hodges gradually uncovers hidden agendas, manipulations, and a cover-up that goes beyond his client's actions.

With the help of investigative journalist, Colonel Styles (played by Ben Kingsley), Hodges uncovers crucial evidence showing that Childers' decision was not only justified but also necessary to protect American lives. As the trial reaches its climax, Hodges masterfully presents his case, challenging the jury to question their assumptions and painting an emotional and compelling narrative of loyalty, honor, and sacrifice in war.

In an intense and surprising conclusion, the verdict determines Childers' fate and exposes the truth behind the rescue mission, forcing the audience to confront the ethical complexities of war and the lengths individuals go to protect their country's interests.
