Fallon's War: Bound By Honor

The first TV movie in the franchise. It was aired on November 1, 1998 on CBS, and starred Chuck Norris, Eddie Cibrian, Jodi Lyn O'Keefe, Paul Walker, Tony Todd, Shannon Lee, R.D. Call, Jeff Kober, and Joe Spano.

Logan and Jessica Fallon (Cibrian, O'Keefe) were ten and seven years old when their prosecutor father was marked for murder by gangster Albert Talgorno (Call) he was prosecuting. Logan has this uncanny ability to sense danger before it happens, and he sensed the gangster's hitmen, led by Sal Mercado (Kober) coming and managed to get Jessica to safety in time. Both survived the attack, but their parents, maternal grandparents, and baby sister Amy were not so lucky. Logan and Jessica chose not to tell the investigator FBI agent John Downing (Spano) who killed his family cause he wants to get them himself. He is taken in by his Uncle Jake (Norris) who's an ex Army Ranger and a martial arts expert, he teaches Logan and Jessica martial arts and gets them into the Army and Navy respectively so that they could prepare themselves to go after the people who killed their family.

Eventually, after returning to their hometown of Chicago after 15 years (and collecting a hefty $30 million estate and inheritance from their father's will (which was expanded over the years thanks to his head of estate)) infiltrating the organization and enlisting some old friends (Navy SEAL Lt. Bruce Jennings, Army Master Sgt. Leroy Griggs, and martial artist Dawn Wong (Walker, Todd, and Lee)), Logan and Jessica steal viable information on Talgorno and sends it to the FBI, also calling Downing to tell them of what they're about to do. Despite Downing telling them to stand down and promising to arrest them, Logan and Jessica move to carry out their revenge.

At Talgorno's place, where the gangsters are all gathered, Logan and Jessica casually reveal their betrayal and their true identities, and inform them of the FBI impending arrival and their possible impending incarceration. As the two siblings turn to leave, the gangsters draw their weapons and instigate a shootout. Jake, Bruce, Leroy and Dawn all gather to help the two just as they are cornered. In the end, most of the gangsters end up killed, including Talgorno and Mercado. The group then flees the scene before the Feds arrive.

Despite, the fact that the gang he'd been targeting for over 20 years has finally been brought down, Downing, being a man of the law, decides to start hunting for both Logan and Jessica.

In the end, the Fallon siblings visit their family graves, and bid farewell to their uncle and friends before going on the run.
