Doug Liman · 2002 · thriller

Doug Liman's 2002 spy thriller, in which a man is pulled half-dead from the Mediterranean with no memory and two bullets in his back, and a Swiss bank account number under his skin. As lethal reflexes he cannot explain keep saving his life, he criss-crosses Europe trying to learn who he is, pursued by the agency that made him. A reinvention of the spy film, taut and grounded. The route follows his flight from the sea to a quiet Greek island.
