An American biologist (played by Liam Neeson) travels to a conference in Berlin, Germany, and suffers from a traffic accident while checking into a hotel, resulting in amnesia. After waking up, he found that the wife who came with him no longer recognized each other, and she was accompanied by another man, who used the same name and identity as his own. So he begins to track down the truth, and with the help of an illegal immigrant taxi driver (played by Diane Kruger), he uncovers the mystery bit by bit. However, the result surprised him: it turns out that he is not a biologist at all, he is a killer who is going to carry out an assassination mission at this meeting, the purpose is to prevent a research result that is beneficial to all mankind from being released to the world . His "wife" is nothing but a partner. The murderers he had tracked down for a long time were nothing but his colleagues and superiors. The instant identity inversion left him at a loss, but in the end he chose to save innocent lives and fight his killer ex-colleague.
This way of making a story is very novel, but unfortunately the screenwriter is a bit weak. The plot of the hero's sense of justice changes after sobering up. At the same time, some details are not meticulous enough, such as the death of the German investigator and the addition of the female driver, which is easy for the audience to see. Doubt. The film focuses on action and chasing, and with the unsatisfactory plot, there is no chance for Liam Neeson to shape the role. Diane Kruger is still so beautiful and sexy. After Troy, she seems to be deliberately changing the image of the weak vase in the film. The next few films are shown in a slightly "tough" image. The soundtrack, action fighting, coherence of editing, and car chase are all excellent works, and can be compared with the "Bourne" series of the same type, but the difference between the storyline and character creation is too great, so that the overall difference is very different. several grades.
The location of this film was shot in Berlin and Leipzig, Germany, and the street scenes of Berlin appeared in the camera, which made me feel a little familiar.
