POSSIBLE SPOILERS:
The sound of this film intrigued me for some reason. I can't remember why. It's a bit like TOTAL RECALL: a guy discovers he may have lead another life as an assassin, but had his memory erased. Now that he has resurfaced, he is being chased by a team of assassins (including LOIS AND CLARK's Tracy Scoggins and Jim 'CYBERTRACKER' Maniaci). Michael Biehn is excellent in the lead, his performance not faltering for a minute. A man in his situation would be as terrified as he initially is. But he soon takes charge and tries to uncover his past, and stop the baddies before they can carry out their assassination attempt on the crusading new Attorney General.
The action is brilliant as well, especially the showdown between Biehn and Mr. Brown (kickboxer Billy Blanks). Patsy Kensit is okay as the psychiatrist, even though at the time she was really too young to be a psychiatrist.
Richard Jordan once again plays a really hateful bad guy, who you're just gonna want to see dead. The tension barely ever lets up. I must say that it's a pity that this one slipped through the cracks when it was released because it's very enjoyable. The 'conspiracy' storyline may not be original, but here it works. Try and get ahold of this one if you can.
