Review:
Versatile action star Michael Biehn ("The Terminator", "Aliens", "The Abyss") portrays Eddy Kay, a watchmaker's assistant whose quiet, low-key life changes after he rescues a woman and her child from a burning building on his way home from work. Hailing him as a hero, local TV stations show him on screen, much to the concern of Col. Taylor (Richard Jordan), a black-ops leader whose team is in Los Angeles to assassinate a former special prosecutor who is an outspoken critic of covert operations and who is about to be confirmed as the new Attorney General. Taylor recognizes Eddy as a former team member thought to have died in a botched assignment. Believing that Eddy is going to compromise their mission, Taylor makes eliminating Eddy the team's top priority.
Awakening to find someone attacking him with a knife, Eddy defends himself, and the assailant flees into the night. When Eddy starts having nightmares and flashbacks showing him glimpses of a former, violent life he does not recognize, he seeks the help of psychotherapist Anna Nolmar (Patsy Kensit), a recent watch-repair customer. After more attempts on his life, Eddy suspects that Dr. Nolmar is involved, so he kidnaps her and takes her with him on the run. He soon realizes that she is not to blame, but now the assassins are targeting them both.
