Henry Brogan is a retiring assassin. He is pursued by a mysterious killer that can predict his every move. He soon learns that he’s being hunted by a younger clone of himself. His next step is to find out why he’s being targeted and who created this clone?
Violence is the biggest issue in this film. Guns, shootings, car chases, explosions, martial arts-the fighting, slamming a character with a motorcycle. I thought the best part of this film is the motorcycle riding action!! Who knew a motorcycle could also be a weapon? 3 1/2* (I liked this movie)
